Labour's Campaign

What do you do if your election campaign is stalling before it has barely begun? That is the question that Jack McConnell must be asking himself as he continues to trail the SNP in poll after poll.

The last thing I would do would be to be associated with two of the most untrustworthy men in Britain.. Yet that has been Jack McConnell’s campaign strategy as he let Tony Blair and Gordon Brown do his talking today.

Voting for the SNP would , "inject uncertainty and instability," claimed Mr Blair. But Mr Blair has a history of making false statements to the world. Do you remember Iraq having weapons of mass destruction?

Gordon Brown claimed that independence would be a, "dangerous risk." Yes we all trust your judgement Mr Brown. Your decision to change pension tax rules 10 years ago has contributed £75 billion to the black hole in pension funds.

If this is the best Mr McConnell can come up with, Alex Salmond will be laughing all the way into Bute House.

Here’s hoping!
