Labour launch by-election campaign*

*according to the BBC

Bizarrely, this was only yesterday. The seat has been vacant since August 13 - that's almost 9 weeks ago.

What have Labour in Glenrothes been doing up until now?

Although I know they have hammered in a few stakeboards.
Anonymous, 14 October 2008 at 16:47: I could be wrong but does this not refer to the official launch once the by-election has been formally announced?

So the Lib Dems went on the 10th, the Tories yesterday and Labour today. Presumably the SNP will officially launch (not merely confirm who their candidate) is tomorrow or thereabouts?

But I'm happy to be wrong on this.
Malc, 14 October 2008 at 17:02: Nah, you're right. SNP "launch" is tomorrow.

Maybe I should be having a pop at the BBC's reporting - again...
