Glasgow's bad governance episodes perpetuated?

Squalid self-serving crony culture episodes like this one can make people despair of the seemingly intractable bad governance that seems to endlessly recur to afflict Glasgow. Yet *another* 'regeneration' appointment mired in scandalous allegations? Everything about this disheartening episode is just so familiar:
"Glasgow Labour councillor behind troubled Commonwealth Games project "put on leave"amid finance probe."
"Kucuk, a local councillor, was given the £35,000 a year job of “regeneration manager”, while fellow party councillor Maureen Burke also landed employment there. A number of Kucuk’s relatives have, at various stages, either been appointed to the Trust board or employed at the Hub."
