Making Things Worse
I heard Michael Kelly on the radio earlier today.
Having a rant about Alex Salmond and the SNP making things worse allegedly - over the hate-filled sectarian behaviour that often accompanies Old Firm football matches.
I wondered why this man would make such a foolish and unhelpful statement.
But then I remembered - as well as being ready with a quote kind on anything to do with Celtic - Michael Kelly is from the old school of Labour politics.
A former Lord Provost of Glasgow City Council - Kelly takes himself too seriously, I think - just like his Labour colleague from Edinburgh - Lord George Foulkes.
Clamping down hard on this vile sectarian behaviour is long overdue - because Scotland has turned a blind eye to it for far too long.
To my mind the people who makes things worse are peope who make partisan political comments - like Michael Kelly.
Because Strathclyde Police set this particular ball rolling after the disgraceful scenes at the Old Firm 'Game of Shame' in March - not the politicians.
