Re-arranging the deckchairs

2008 May 7

Peter Brookes – The Times

Now this cartoon was about the tribulations of the UK Labour Party.

Yet as Adam looked at it, it seemed to him that it had resonance here as well.

In recent days we have seen the re-arrangement of the deckchairs on the Titanic with the rushed moves to change climate change and regional petrol tax policies, and as usual when the going gets tough in the electoral cycle the contemptuous disregard of the Greens . In Adam’s opinion the Greens have brought that on themselves by positioning themselves effectively to the Left of Labour and electing the deeply unattractive Russel Norman as co-leader.

No doubt the forthcoming budget will have more ‘initiatives’ geared to retaining power.

Plus given recent polls the need for re-launch seems daily more and more apparent
