the chief of UNISON the public sector union has quit his post and published a damaging letter highlighting how Blairs Labour party is treating the Scots elderly, sick and poor as badly as the Tories ever did.

Alex Salmond, said: "Mark Irvine (the Unison leader in question) is speaking for a large number of Labour activists whose loyalty has been pushed beyond breaking point by the rightward drift of new Labour on to a Tory policy agenda."

Any yet stupid Scottish labour voters keep waving that union flag whilst they wallow in London created and maintained poverty.
