Glasgow - all is not lost for Labour

Calton has some sympathy for embattled Glasgow SNP leader Allison Hunter, because he knows full well that he would not do any better under the aggressive media questioning that politicians have to go through these days, however that is just the point. We now live in a world of televised debates and live radio where pushy presenters grill would-be council leaders about their policies and what they would do if elected and if you can't answer immediately and succinctly you are toast. As the old saying goes, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Hunter now seems to be realising this however it's too late and her indecisiveness is just compounding the problem for the SNP's Glasgow campaign. Gordon Matheson may yet snatch victory from the jaws of defeat for Labour.
