fat ol' sun Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 Some very meaningful debate takes place in Holyrood. In comparison, if you have ever seen Scottish questions in Westminster the level of debate is dreadful. Lamont's conduct in Holyrood does much to demote debate in Holyrood to point scoring tribalism as opposed to the healthy consensual politics previously seen. The sooner she is replaced the better. It doesn't serve Scotland well to lower the quality of debate in the manner she does. Well there's my thrupence worth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoney_stu Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Johann is leader only in name... the real power in Labour is in Westminster, or indeed with the unions, Ironic in that the Labour Party "gave" us our Scottish Parliament but they are the most centrally controlled of the unionist parties. She is starting to make Iain Gray look competent, and falls far short of Donald Dewars standards. I believe Unite decided to back the No campaign before it even ran its ballot of members to decide if it should back the no campaign!
