A Son of the Rock

So: Scottish Labour has elected Iain Gray as its leader.

I can’t say the choice they had was inspiring as only Cathy (Oh Bernard, son) Jamieson had really impinged on me but he seems spectacularly dull. Gray by nature perhaps.

But going on precedent he’ll be around for a while and won’t be brought down by a kerfuffle around his finances.

Dewar, McLeish*, McConnell, Alexander*, Gray. After Donald Dewar, the only one of that lot who seemed a bit more than a boring party hack was Wendy.
*financial irregularities.

I also can’t see him bringing Labour’s fortunes up quickly.
