In a remarkable coincidence the minor personal indiscretions by the Scot Nat who started the 'Cash for Peerages' inquiry are being used to deflect from the woes of the failing Labour campaign. My police sources confirm that the situation is even murkier, with Angus MacNeil being the target of a concerted dirty tricks campaign. Watch this space.

Labour Dirty Tricks Target SNP MP
On the day of a new poll showing the SNP 12 points clear of Labour, the Labour supporting Sunday Mail newspaper has splashed with a salacious story about Angus MacNeil MP. He is alleged to have been involved in a "Kiss and Cuddle" after a ceilidh some years ago, but nothing more.

And the Mail On Sunday would never do that would they!
Yey Labour! Please continue to make your desperation even more patently obvious to the public!
it is the Sunday Mail NOT the Mail on Sunday - the Dail Record's Sunday rag.
Good to see your studious avoidance of reporting such a matter in your esteemed organ. Those that peddle such nonsense are beneath contempt.
sanddef [12.03] AM. I couldn't agree more. But I don't like the look of those bags under your eyes. I think you need a good night's sleep.

Desperados and plonkers
I was in Inverness a couple of days ago, not a Labour poster in sight, just dozens of SNP and Lib Dem posters glistnening in the spring sunshine. Word is that Labour has no activists left in the Highland capital.
Angus McNeil deserves the unreserved admiration of the entire UK public. He could be peter sutcliffes brother and i would still respect what he achieved when the English establishment were doing nothing. He has brought into the open the crimes of a vcile individual. Where is the angus ncneil of extroadinbary rendition, of bae/saudi. of dodgy dossier???
Angus, you have shamed every English politician with your actions and I will respect you for that comne what may.
Soon, voting Labour in Scotland will be the same as voting Tory, viz., a harmless eccentricity.
As is usual from the Sunday Labour Male, a story at severallevels.
Firstly a story that is much less than it seems. Those telling the tale admit to being seriously inebriated. Details given must not be taken as facts.
Secondly a story that gets the front page only because it might, just might, hurt an honest politician who has hurt, damaged, discredited a Labour PM.
Lastly a story designed to deflect from something much more serious. Labour are politically dead in Scotland.
Not yet as dead as the Dodo & Unionist Party but heading that way. 300 Council seat to lose and 25~30 Parliamentary seats some of which will be replaced by list seats filled by Labour people so dim that even their opponents might (briefly) wish for the return of some of the defeated.
Wait for the Daily Record tomorrow?
