Labour's rationale for refusing to support the calling of the Glasgow North East plebiscite? You can't have an election during the school holidays. Up you could not make it. How can it possibly be better to force school pupils to have an extra day off school to accommodate polling? Does Labour employ someone to think this stuff up or does it just come naturally to them?

As I said later on in the thread, that 4/1 on you winning looks like absolutely cracking value.
4/1? I don't use the bookies but if anyone fancies a fair chance of a return on their cash, 4/1 is a cracking price - nothing's ever a sure-fire bet in politics, but that seems a good shout.
