Labour's Watergate leaves trust and dignity in the gutter

Telegraph
"Whatever headline-grabbing stunts Mr Darling artfully mingles in his Budget with statesmanlike strategies for medium-term economic recovery, he will address them to a nation that holds his Government in contempt. ....But the key similarity is beyond dispute: a partisan smear campaign was being planned in the inner sanctum of the Brown regime, using the tools and resources of government. ....The McBride emails were the draft notes for a campaign to use the covert strategic might of the state to destroy the most senior Tories, spread rumours about their health, and – crossing a line that very, very few politicians ever cross – attacking their families."
