England could learn from Scotland’s failures.

Not my words. Those are the words of Tory Bliar.

An election row has broken out about the different ways Labour runs the health service north and south of the border. The Prime Minister suggested last night that England could learn from Scotland’s failures. At the press conference, Mr Blair was reminded that Mr McConnell has “failed to introduce any of your health reforms”. All this goes to show that our slimy First Minister’s overseeing of the NHS has been a disaster - record spending has meant record waiting lists.

“We have a Labour Prime Minister who has failed English people on health poking fun at a Scottish First Minister because he has failed even more spectacularly,” he said. “Even he now believes that Scottish Labour are simply not up to the job.”

The Scottish Executive, our well paid civil servants kept their distance saying it would not get involved in a “political” dispute.

So that’s all right then. I’m surprised none of them blaimed the Lib Dems!
