How twenty fours can encapsulate all that brings
derision to politics and politicians but with one exception. We will never know how many of the 2,001,926 “NO” voters were persuaded by
Cameron and Milleband`s last minute
promises of change but already the caveats are set to obfuscate the
actuality. This apparent volte face will
live in the minds of these people for a long time. The phrase perfidious Albion comes to
mind. The only person to emerge with
credit from this is Gordon Brown whose rousing speech in Dunfermline this
morning shows a man changed beyond all recognition from the weak indecisive
misfit who flunked calling an election in 2008 which he could have won. I`ll be in Glasgow in the near future. My eyes and ears will be more sensitive than
usual.
