New candidate won’t help weak and discredited Labour party - Ritchie

March 23, 2010 5:23 PM
Originally published by Scottish Liberal Democrats

Commenting after Labour's National Executive rubber-stamped the East Lothian party's decision to deselect Anne Moffat, Liberal Democrat candidate for East Lothian Stuart Ritchie said:

"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."
