Labour's Branch Office (04/04/15)

Labour's branch office in Scotland has never looked more like a branch office what with Nicola Sturgeon taking on the 'big boys' in London while Jim Murphy kicks his heels back home.

The problem for Labour is that whatever the outcome of the general election most voters in Scotland now believe that their interests will be better represented by a strong contingent of SNP MPs rather than the 'deadwood' Labour MPs who have been sitting in Westminster since 2010.

To very little effect it has to be said which is why it's time for them to go.

Iain Green's cartoon for The Scotsman the other day seemed to capture the current plight of the Scottish Labour Party - with Jim Murphy appearing as a Phoenix-like creature trying to emerge from the ruins of the branch office.

And as Ed Miliband posts a notice for a new 'manager' in Scotland, Labour's dinosaur  MPs roam menacingly in the Westminster background. 

Clever, I thought, to get all those competing images in one single cartoon.
