These often become overly complicate...Thanks Tris.<br /><br />These often become overly complicated, hardly anyone knows how Labour select their candidates for example and what role the unions have in it - not that I have issues with unions having a role - so long as its fair.<br /><br />Lamont is a puppet, I could have been more concise about that, as you say, in all of it she was no where to be seen. I really have no idea why anyone is fooled by the notion she's in charge.<br /><br />Eric Joyce for example, I don't imagine would ever agree to being subordinate to someone like Lamont. Despite his various issues, comparatively, Lamont is a tiny political fart in a breeze compared to Joyce.<br /><br />And finally, not that I condone violence at all. Eric Joyce's drinking habits not-with-standing, looking at those particular Tories, one can't help but limit any condemnation one had for Joyce and his actions.<br /><br />;-)pa_broon74https://www.blogger.com/profile/01915208411019621104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7488826927992195485.post-57089321331083668252013-11-06T09:30:35.008-08:002013-11-06T09:30:35.008-08:00Thank you for putting such a complicated situation...Thank you for putting such a complicated situation into such a concise and easy to read report.<br /><br />Given than Ms Lamont is the regional head of Labour, and the first one to allegedly have authority over all of the party north of the border MPs. MEPs, councillors, MSPs (a move taken to try to make the party look Scottish instead of English) why did she have nothing to do with the disciplining of Mr Joyce; the removal of his whip and the debacle that followed over the selection?<br /><br />Why given that not only is she the so-called leader of so-called Scottish Labour, but the leader of the opposition in our parliament AND a member of Unite, has she been so silent on the Grangemouth debacle?<br /><br />Why has Ed Miliband been in charge of it, and has she only appeared and commented in the last few days since her own party have started to demand where the hell she is?<br /><br />And is Lamont actually in charge of Labour in Scotland, as in 'in charge', or is she only there to order the tea and biscuits for the shadow cabinet and to look pretty?<br /><br />I have no idea how she is at tea and biscuits, but I can safely say there must be better candidates for the second part of the job description.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
