An Open Letter to the Labour Party

[virtuella]

Thanks a lot, Labour Party. Thanks to you we will be governed for another five years by the party that has pushed people into poverty in their droves, that has seen suicide rates soar among the sick and disabled, and food banks spread like a fungus. Thanks to you the party that has brought the UK’s economic recovery to a standstill whilst doubling

You have put this so very well - and I know quite a few people who would happily sign their name to it if you were to send it of to Labour HQ.

Thank you. I am really gutted. Though I admit that my husband and I sat up all night, high-fiving each other as the Scottish results rolled in. Also, the Greens did moderately well.

Very well said. I'd happily sign my name too. I was glued to the BBC website all night and felt gutted too.

It hadn't actually occurred to me to get signatures for this. I've sent it to The National in the hope that they'll print it in their letter section. But I'll think about the signature thing.

I'll happily sign it too.

This is excellent, I'd happily sign it.

Would adding a line about Clause IV be going too far? My wife says she'll never vote Labour until that is returned.

I suppose I could fit that in somewhere.

This blog really expresses how I feel about the way Labour have behaved. I will share it on my autonomy scotland facebook/twitter pages. Would normally reblog it on my blog as well but think that only works for wordpress. Really enjoyed reading it.
