Gilmore is going a bomb because he is not offering a magic bullet

I’M tempted to ring the Labour party and leave them a message.

My days of offering advice to the party are over, but I’m getting really frustrated at all those people who should know better (and who do know better in many cases) solemnly pronouncing that the only thing wrong with the Labour party is that it has no policies.

Next time you hear someone saying that, I’ll suggest, parcel up the entire set of policies you’ve published and send them off. That’ll teach them because a pretty substantial box will arrive on their doorsteps.
