Having just watched the Glenrothes Labour and SNP candidates' utterly dire performances on STV's "Politics Now" - I make the obvious points:* Oh dear ... who was worse, less prepared? Well, the Labour candidate, but that's hardly to say that the SNP candidate did well ... really poor stuff. Colin Mackay summed it up - "They are not Jim Sillars, are they?" Correct.
* Err ... where were the Tory and Liberal Democrat candidates? Unimpressive, STV, to exclude the other main party candidates. Harry Wills, the LibDem candidate, is so much more impressive. I would say that, wouldn't I? But it doesn't make it anything other than accurate, nonetheless!
