Labour’s defeat

Just a quick one on what happened in the UK: Obviously Labour took a beating, but I feared it would be even worse. And before you say ”Labour is no longer the biggest party in Scotland”, you have to have more than only one mid-term election to refer to. And the pattern after the election is really mixed.

One rather sound analysis I read was this one in The Telegraph. And don’t miss The Economist’s special on Gordon Brown.
