This was a bunch of Labour Councillors crying crocodile tears over the policy that their Party at UK, Scottish and city level has overhwelmingly driven through.<BR/><BR/>A really sad part about this pointless posturing is that your average Glasgow voter, and non-voter, has the gumption to work out that the Labour Party Council will in reality do nothing to prevent this policy being implemented. <BR/><BR/>As for your being patronised by a Labour old hand - I'll bet it was nothing so bad as the sheer venom I was subjected to by an older Baillie matriach when I did a short stint as an elected member of the Glasgow Committe of the Co-operative Group. I committed the supreme offence of (very diplomatically!) questioning a matte rof procedure on a matter of good governance... never to be forgiven!<BR/><BR/>I soon realised this 'movement' is for all intents and purposes, part of the now moribund Co-operative Party (maybe one reason that the co-operative sector has done so badly throughout the UK as compared with elsewhere in Europe). <BR/><BR/>The Co-operative Party, sorry movement, did for the Co-op retail sector what they are now doing along with the Labour Party to the national post office network.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
