Common error

When the Labour Party loses a a Bradford stronghold after 40 years of occupancy, then the national leader, Ed Miliband, has no chance of winning the next UK general election.

Labour supporters must have also been shocked to learn that their MPs failed to support an SNP budget motion condemning the reduction in tax for the very highest earners on the basis that they never support SNP motions. So much for working for a fairer society.

Under devolution in Scotland, Labour is too busy nit- picking over tea and biscuits at Bute House to be considered a serious party of government.

Therefore, who is going to lead the Labour says Yes movement in the independence referendum campaign as this offers Labour supporters their only chance of implementing social justice?
