Daily Record not chuffed with Wendy?

SCOTTISH Labour leader, Wendy Alexander – whom, we reported yesterday, has been giving the cold shoulder to Sunday Herald and The Herald columnist Ian Macwhirter – is apparently, in turn, being given a frosty reception by the Daily Record, we hear.

Our source is the Atticus column in the Sunday Times Scotland, which revealed: “Last week, Wendy spoon-fed a story about yob courts to a broadsheet newspaper, instead of her sole remaining ally in Holyrood’s press tower – the Daily Record.

“Cue fury in the Record office, livid phone calls to Labour spin doctors, and a dramatic cooling in relations between the party and its hitherto loyal supporter. Expect a flurry of editorials favourable to Alex Salmond…”
