Scottish and Welsh Labour Share Headquarters With Unite
Labour are frantically trying to contain their crisis to Falkirk. Chuka has been doing the rounds in the TV studios insisting that it is a “one-off”, a line that may well come back to haunt him. Something the Tories are well aware of as they ask the police to investigate a further 40 Labour selections. Labour are in the Unite union’s pocket all across the country.
Take Wales as an example. Welsh Labour’s HQ is located at 1 Cathedral Road, Cardiff. No prizes for guessing who shares the building with them:

WATCH: Ed Talks Tough With Red Len
Guido will bet he is less tough in private when he is begging for cash. Unite has given the Labour Party £8.4 million since they put Ed in charge. An astonishing amount to give when according to their own leaked internal documents, Unite themselves estimate only 35% to 40% of their members voted for Labour in 2010
