Perhaps a new morality, if somewhat still divided across policy) is coming back into politics?Ewanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013208725859078505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043115987518760367.post-44843609896863293972008-11-13T11:14:00.000+00:002008-11-13T11:14:00.000+00:00Not at all, I'd happily back the 'right' candidate...Not at all, I'd happily back the 'right' candidate over the 'wrong' candidate regardless of party colours I'd like to think, if that was a greater concern than the hue of national Government.<BR/><BR/>My local Labour MP does a great job. I'm undecided how I'll vote at the next GE to be honest.<BR/><BR/>I thought the line-up in Glenrothes was very strong and the constituents were in a win-win position whether it was Roy or Grant (no offence to Wills or Golden).Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01485196287282298695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043115987518760367.post-4827114560044885582008-11-11T00:02:00.000+00:002008-11-11T00:02:00.000+00:00Thanks Jeff, appreciated though guess under your ...Thanks Jeff, appreciated though guess under your magnanimous words will be the hope its the only night of joy we will have for some time to come...<BR/><BR/>EwanEwanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013208725859078505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043115987518760367.post-53630178534805238812008-11-10T04:12:00.000+00:002008-11-10T04:12:00.000+00:00Fair play Ewan, I didnät expect Cammy to pull it o...Fair play Ewan, I didnät expect Cammy to pull it off. Mostly due to my underestimating the effort Labour must have put on in the ground and also my impression was that most Tory and Lib Dem voters would have put SNP ahead of Labour.<BR/><BR/>So yeah, congratulations and I hope you enjoyed the result on the night in a suitably buoyant manner!Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01485196287282298695noreply@blogger.com
