@peffers50: "Watching the Secretary of State for Scotlans on TV is like watching the 
Titanic go down. BBC Scotland's Political Editor, Brian Taylor, asks him for 
his opinion about all the scandals that have hit the Labour Party. The SoS 
does not seem to know all that is going on. He  glosses over the Lothian's 
scandals as if they don't exist, no mention of the deselection of a sitting 
MP and nothing about the Labour Members up to their ears in expenses 
ripoffs. He glosses over the Steven Purcell matters as if it was only 
Purcell who had resigned and he then talks of one man's personal problems. 
Does he really think the Scottish electorate are so stupid?

I'm still laughing at that one but laughing even more at today's madness by 
Labour.
Here is part of a statement made today by, "Brian Taylor", the BBC's 
Political Editor -
"In effect, Labour will run this election in an oppositional approach, 
positing David Cameron as the virtual incumbent, the one to be brought down. 
This is, of course, designed to counter the Tories' main message which is: 
"Ask yourself, do you really want another five years of Gordon Brown?" 
Labour wants voters to make a choice between two parties - not to consider 
that they are participating in a referendum on Mr Brown".
Now, if Labour are fighting the election from the that point of view, the 
Conservatives have sucked them into the idea of, "Leaders Debates", but 
there are no such things in the UK as a Presidential Campaign, a 
Presidential Election nor a President Candidate. Simple really - we don't 
have presidents. The obvious folly of Labour taking part in, "Leaders 
Debates", puts them at a great disadvantage in the GE. Have we not seen the 
view expressed here on so many occasions of, "We will vote out that Scoch 
******* that rules England at the election"? Thing is the Labour numpties 
are so bloody stupid that they would rather dae doon Oor Eck than David 
Cameron and in this they have ample backing from Cleggie, who has nothing to 
lose in a Leaders Debate but who could pick up a seat or two by going along 
with it. After all Cleggie, who is leader of the LDs,  has zero chance of 
becoming leader of UK government.
Auld Bob. "
