Ashcroft Publishes Labour Research
Michael Ashcroft has tonight published a research paper titled What Future For Labour, in a bid, no doubt, to be very helpful to the new Labour leader. It shows the Labour movement at odds with swing voters. You can download it HERE.
The central thesis is that people who voted Labour have different views of the party than those who didn't. Reminds me of the line in Fawlty Towers: Couldn't we get you on Mastermind? Sybil Fawlty: secilaist subject the bleeding obvious.
So the people who voted for us have a higher opinion of us than the people who didn't?
ReplyDeleteHe paid for this?
Whatever next from Lord Ashcroft....a £4 million donation to the Labour Party and a speech at the TUC?
ReplyDeleteThe chap obviously has money to burn.
Mr Ed (remember him?) will only take advice from Mr Crow and all!
ReplyDeleteNotice how Red Rag and Jimmy ignored what the report said? Or, knows so much already, that he might not even have bothered to read it?
ReplyDeleteThey are perfect examples of what is wrong with Labour.
Fingers in ears, heads where the sun don't shine! Remarkable in their patheticness.
Matt,
