Labour drops guarantees on health and schools

Scottish Labour has ditched guarantees to voters on health and education being made in the rest of the UK and will fight the general election instead on key pledges on knife crime and apprenticeships, The Times has learnt.

So, what can we expect from Mr Gray?

A senior Labour source said: “Not being in government in Scotland has given us a problem in that we can’t promise health and education policies but ... we will be replacing reserved policies with ideas we know have a resonance with the public and strong attack lines on the SNP.”

Aye, that figures. More negative gurning...

The Scottish Branch of the Labour Party will face some serious problems at the upcoming election. Glasgow Council is in crisis with some embarrassing stuff still to be revealed. East Lothian Labour is in knots over their MP's performance, low work rate and expenses claims whilst the rather vapid Ms Moffat MP has attacked the 'viciousness and vindictiveness' of her constituency colleagues. Well nothing new there then.
Mr Gray is a world class gurner with an unmatched downbeat sweaty style that shines on Newsnight Scotland even when he's being coaxed along by his pal Glenn Campbell. He speaks Portuguese too you know.

Perhaps we should send Mr Gray a fireproof violin so that he could play it when his party self destructs and spontaneously bursts into flames.
