The worst of times

With commendable honesty Phil Burton-Cartledge (Labour insider and a lecturer at Derby University) writes about the Labour Party:  http://www.leftfutures.org/2015/02/labours-scottish-bloodbath-and-what-needs-to-be-done-about-it/

"Too many constituency parties have become rotten boroughs beholden to awful cliques of mutual backscratchers. These have been the party to – and occasional victims of – stitch-ups, internal ructions, incompetence and, in some cases, criminality. The key difference between Scotland and the rest is the process is even more accentuated."

"Labour generally and Scottish Labour cannot be fixed before the election."


"For Labour, these are the worst of times..."
