It’s another tumultuous Jim Murphy Rally, readers!
We’re just putting this shot of today’s brief Edinburgh gathering (from Isabel Hardman of the Spectator) here for the record, so people can compare it with the footage and images that appear on tonight’s news bulletins and tomorrow’s newspapers.
A super-alert reader pointed out something about today’s Sunday Politics that we hadn’t noticed.
