Anyway, this week, 1st week in December 2007, the Labour party have finally gone into meltdown. I was never really able to put my finger on just exactly what it was I never really liked about them, but it seems I'm not the only one ( (c) John Lennon).
The Labour party have, for me, for a long time exhibited this idea that it was only they who cared about the poor, the meek, the humble ((c) The Bible). They have propogated the myth, particularly in Scotland, that only the Labour party care about the poor and disinherited of the Earth.
What an astonishing fallacy. As if, the other political parties could actually accept that these lies belong soley to Labour. I'm firmly in the camp that all political parties will eventually be corrupted in one way or another by power. We only need to look at who was attracted to "serving" the Scottish people in the first place though, to realise that anyone with half a brain and a wee tad of influence would be jumping on the gravy train, then pushing through the idea that life in Edinburgh meant they should have to purchase a property in the Capital at taxpayers expense, with no discernible benefit to the taxpayer after said "service to the community" was completed... a 4 year term with serious interest...
Anyway, that's only half the point. Labour have finally gone into meltdown as they seem to have forgotten that the rules they imposed to prevent the SNP from accepting donations from Scots actually allowed to benfit from their talent, ie those living abroad, rather than those who stayed at home and slimed their way up through the union movements, actually applied to them too. It's a familiar scene. The Labour party have decided that only they are able to represent 'true Scots' views. The SNP are parochial teuchters and the Tories are public school Stock brokers ((c) Daily record - Scotland's National Newspaper... when it suits...). The Labour party are immune to the rules. A bit like the smoking prefect grassing in the 3rd year rebel... I digress... again!
Wendy Alexander, brother of SNP hero Douglas, he who ensured victory at the last election, is refusing to resign from her post after illegally accepting a contribution from a tax exile, despite ackowledging the importance of the contribution through a thankyou note. Wendy claims she didn't mean to intentionally do anything wrong... Son, for I'm sure you're the only one I'll actually direct this way, when some twat describes you as a 'towering intellect', just remember... it's hardly likely to be true, even if you wish it to be so. When you're in a hole, show the good grace to recognise it and stop digging. Don't lie, don't blame others. Stand up and take it on the chin. You may well lose position, but at least you'll always have your dignity.
