Will the last person.........


In a piece remininscent of a certain Sun front page,former former Labour Director of Communications Lance Price delivers a stinging attack on his party.

RIP New Labour. Born July 21 1994; died April 22 2009. Cause of death: drowning in a sea of debt. New Labour passed away surrounded by its family and loved ones. It was survived by a shattered party. Memorial service scheduled for May 2010. No flowers.
he writes in the Telegraph this morning

He is scathing of the 50p tax rate which the same believes that his former boss is as well but the attack runs deeper

The declaration of a fresh start based on principle and integrity that had brought the party tens of thousands of new members in the 1990s has long been buried under the cynicism of Iraq and the scandal of cash for honours, to name but a few.
and he concludes that

For now it lies in a coma; the prognosis for a recovery in the short term looks bleak. And having delivered three remarkable election victories, the chances of it reviving in time to help secure a fourth are receding every day.
