That poll from YouGov on Scotland is a lot more believable than MORI's, hence more worrying. Murphy (and yes, I do think it will be him) has his work cut out - it might just be the job he was born to do, though...... He'll be starting from a negative position - being a "Wastemonster" TM M...

Watching Cameron walk to his car after being "attacked" by a jogger in that video, I noticed he had a big smirk on his face. Surely it wasn't another PR prank - because it and talk of protecting him "US President style" is all over the news this a.m. taking the heat out of his b...

In fairness, if David Cameron had worn a t-shirt saying "this is what a feminist looks like", I would have had to stop being a feminist

And for the record I don't think this is a "tribal" conversation. I found it interesting that Jack seemed to go for Umunna, who most Labour members can't stand ;-) Not an endorsement, you understand. :D CM is a posterboy and with as much depth. I think he might grow into a leader but it'l...

Andy Burnham is the obvious front runner. I like the Eagle sisters. But we're back in "the wrong . . . " territory, so perhaps not! Umunna, imo. Burnham's tainted as Brown's Treasury Secretary and Mid-Staffs (both wrongly) and has apologised to so many people over the years he's mooted to...

Murphy (or any other MP who is elected) would transfer to Holyrood next May, if not before. Maybe its my not being based in Scotland, but I genuinely don't see it as a serious issue. Gray and Lamont were MSPs - they were also (the former especially) manifestly not up to the job. That did Scottish L...

JackPranker

I don't like Jim Murphy. He may be Scottish Labour's least worst option right now, however - and it means he would never lead the GB-wide party. Silver lining there, surely? Not sure he'd help the situation. Parachuting in a Westminster Labour MP to take over the SLab leadership could (and probably...

Morning all. Is Labour in trouble as a result of the apparent dysfunctionality of the party machine north of the border? I'm no fan of the constant criticisms of EMs leadership but, if Lamont is telling the truth about the bedroom tax and the sacking of Ian Price, then criticism seems to be warrante...

The SNP are kicking up about not being included in the Leader's Debates, but I think it's pretty clear that unless you stand in every constituency (or 325 at least) then there is literally no chance of you being the next leader of the country. Now, if Scotland want to have a debate for their MSP el...
