Numbers.. So Gorgeous George has been kicked out of New Labour for whatever reason, you can point fingers at treason, at socialism, at the sharp suit, or simply cos Tone dislikes dissent. Have you ever in your life seen the epitome of pig ignorant labourism rear its ugly, and I mean incredibly ugly, head in the form of Ian McCartney. What is it about the Labour Party in Scotland that it can vomit up the likes of him and George Robertson in the space of two decades? Jesus what happened to Trade Unionism that we end up with that calibre of arsehole as a representative?

Anyway back to numbers. I have laughed befor at the haemorrhaging of members over the years since the arrival of Tone the merciless, myself included. The number 360 is not only the number of degrees in a circle, but rather the total membership, apparently of the Glasgow Kelvin Constituency Labour Party - as advised by the "Chairman" of said Constituency, a supporter of George, like many of his co-members. What has the Labour Party become? I remember the days, pre Tone when my Constituency Party had a membership of 1,500, that's Cunninghame South a relatively rural sector in comparison with Glasgow Kelvin, itself a merged Constituency with a significiant student and academic left tendency. How bizarre. It kind of highlights just how out of step or just how far removed from British Politics that Scotland is. How we can vote albeit P.R. for a credible left alternative and how Tone and his MI6 planted cohorts ought to realise that we wont buy his pish and we wont stand for his acolytes being thrust upon us. To hell with New Labour, McCartney, Joyce and the other sycophants.
