Patronising Prick



Far be it from me to come to the aid of the former Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont who resigned the other day, but I have to say that I found Ed Miliband's response completely patronising. 

A UK Labour party source said: "She realised it was time for a change in Scotland, she has put the party first.

Now I've never been a fan of Johann Lamont's yet she did raise some important issues in her resignation statement and in a subsequent interview she gave to the Daily Record newspaper.

 Issues that require a response from the UK leader Ed Miliband because it's not every day that someone says that the Scottish Labour Party is being treated like a 'branch office' of the UK Labour Party in London.

 Especially the outgoing Scottish Labour leader.

Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
