Labour were never going to walk on water

AT LEAST it was fitting in Holy Week that we asked the question: Will Labour walk on water?

But, of course, the answer was, “Erm, nah, they won’t”. For, despite the very public Cabinet squall on metering charges, the junior party had nowhere to walk out to, except, of course, oblivion.

Marginalised as Phil Hogan leaked like the proverbial burst pipe, Labour went into a fit of pique, got all huffy, spoke-up the Cabinet “split”, then went quiet again.
