Spent 5 mins trying to find something good about Lincolnshire.
Sausages?
Mrs T came from there
Michael Gove comes from Edinburgh and was raised in Aberdeen but I won't hold that against either place.
Interestingly, the only 1 of the nominal "Scottish Party" leaders who you could actually vote for this time round is Jim Murphy. Nicola Sturgeon is a constituency MSP. Patrick Harvie, Ruth Davidson and Willie Rennie are list MSPs. Jabba the Coburn is (to my undying chagrin) an MEP.
I think the Eds Milliballs would do the Labour campaign in Scotland plenty of good if they butted out from their sweeping SNP = doom declarations (see today's news) on their flying visit from Westminster and left it to Jim to get on his Irn Bru crate, which seemed to work to some extent (even if it was disaster limitation) last time round. Surely someone in Labour's Scottish campaign office must realise that 3 cardboard cutout white, male, approaching middle-ages politicians in dark suits and ties in various shades of red-through-purple holding press conferences for the benefit of the assembled shipped-in cameras and journalists isn't going to reach out to the kind of folks who appeared to have declared their intention to no longer vote for them. But what do I know?
