Top Gear Vote

 Rod Liddle agreed with my own observation about the wisdom of the Labour Party picking a needless fight with Jeremy Clarkson and the BBC's Top Gear programme.

I didn't realise Michael Dugher acted as Labour's communications spokesperson, but on this form he should definitely stand down and make way for someone else because he's a huge embarrassment.

Labour loses the Top Gear vote

Labour’s exciting election strategy of estranging every single voter in Britain is gathering momentum. Now that only four people in Scotland are likely to vote Labour in May, the party has turned its guns on another vast constituency — people who enjoy the television show Top Gear.

The man who’s in charge of Labour’s “communications”, Michael Dugher MP, slagged off both the programme and its main presenter, our very own Jeremy Clarkson.

“I mean the guy is basically an idiot,” Dugher averred, before dismissing the entire presenting team as “a bunch of old blokes wearing jeans and sports jackets” and suggesting that the programme was “not remotely representative” of motorists.

No, Michael, it’s not meant to be. It’s a hilarious entertainment, like your election strategy. Anyway, that’s another 5m or so votes down the swanny.

SNP - Conspiracy of Silence

So here's the issue - two Glasgow MSPs (Nicola Sturgeon and Humza Yousaf) have been asked a reasonable question about their use of public money to employ two SNP councillors who already have full-time, salaried jobs as senior elected members of Glasgow City Council.   But these two public servants (both long-serving ministers) refuse to answer, so what to do next? One regular reader suggests raising the matter on the floor of the Scottish Parliament which is a good idea, but requires an MSP who's prepared to put down a written question for Scottish Ministers to answer. So here's a list of activities which will help shine a light on what has been going on because as Lord Nolan once said apropos driving up standards in public life - 'daylight is the best disinfectant'. Write to the leader of Glasgow City Council Write to the Chief Executive of Glasgow City Council Write to all elected members in Glasgow City Council Write to the party leaders in Glasgow City Council W
