Iain MacWhirter writes an excellent article in The Guardian about Labour and the Lib Dems have lost the plot in Scotland. Perhaps the SNP will call another general election in 2 years and consign the squabbling Labour party and the LibDems in a huff even more to the political wilderness. The infighting over Jack McConnell's successor has already started.
Regardless of mere party politics, one paragraph written in this London based newspaper stood out.
After Wednesday, Alex Salmond First Minister "..will be off to see the Queen to inform Her Majesty that the United Kingdom has changed forever".
At Westminster, Tony Blair has to ask for permission to dissolve Parliament. In Scotland, we just go down to London and tell the Queen how it's going to be.
No longer New Labour, New Britain but New Democracy, New Scotland.
Welcome to "A new time" for Scotland, the day that the UK has its first Nationalist leading a UK country.
