Commenting on the news that David Miliband is to step back from frontline politics by not standing for Labour’s shadow cabinet SNP MP Pete Wishart said:
“This is a set back for Ed Miliband on day 4 of his leadership. While this has obviously been a difficult decision for David Miliband and one any mainstream politician can sympathise with Labour are left without the leader they voted for.
“However it does show that Labour remains more concerned about the soap opera lifestyles of its leading politicians than the policies or protection people need from Tory cuts.
“At the next election voters will have a choice between an experienced SNP Government led by Alex Salmond putting the priorities of the Scottish people first against an inexperienced Labour party led two leaders with no public support.”
