The next, next Labour Candidate?
It's funny how these things can be so obvious and you don't see them until you step back or hear a comment that starts you thinking.
I previously blogged about Cllr Norman MacDonald being Chair of most of the Committees in the Comhairle but until a Labour Party member made an off the cuff remark I was not seeing the obvious.
As Chair of Environment Committee, the Employment Committee, the Infrastructure Committee AND third in charge of the entire Council, Emperor MacDonald will be the council spokesperson on everything, but everything, which gives him three new job opportunities: MP, MSP and Convener.
He has a chance of being selected due to his high profile if - and only if - he keeps his fellow Labour Party members from sticking the knife in.
