LibLink … Mark Pack on Labour’s SnowStorm Plot

By | Wed 6th January 2010 - 10:54 pm

LDV’s co-editor Mark Pack was one of three bloggers asked by Channel 4 News for their take on today’s extraordinary bid by two former cabinet ministers to unseat the Prime Minister. You can watch Mark’s minute-long clip here. Here’s a quick excerpt as a taster:

Today’s events have all the makings of a fantastic political farce because if you were to launch a coup against the prime minister now is just about the worst time to do it.

“I guess it’s just desperation because Labour know that under Gordon Brown they are facing a very heavy election defeat and they realise they only have one card left to play – and that’s changing leader.”

You can see what Paul Staines of the Guido Fawkes blog and Labour’s Kerry McCarthy had to say by clicking here.
