Heralding the Sun's U-turn



Today's anti-Iain Gray story in the Scottish Sun is titled 'It's all a matter of mistrust' and opens "Labour leader Iain Gray can't be trusted to be First Minister - because of a series of extraordinary U-turns..." The next paragraph starts with the words "Flip-flopping Mr Gray".

Well it's nice to know that U-turners and flip-floppers can't be trusted.

Ironically this morning the Herald uses the headline "Tabloid in Holyrood U-turn as The Sun comes out for Salmond".

Talking of headlines on the Herald's website, since they presumably use the same people as Scottish Labour uses for its election literature - and that's not to make a political point! - it's always interesting to read some of the headlines and other, um, inconsistencies on the site, but a particularly good one appeared this morning. It actually does make a bit of sense if you read the article!:
