"It doesn't matter to the people of East Lothian who the Labour candidate is. Whoever they end up with, Labour is falling apart here, but the Liberal Democrats are in second place and fighting hard.
"In Iain Gray's back yard, the Labour party are weak and discredited and choosing a new candidate won't change a thing."
