We will canvass Johann Lamonts constituency extensively. We will ask people what five things they want to change locally, and we will get them active in changing these things. We will essentially talent scout on an epic scale. We will find people who want to become leaders, and we will push them and encourage them to plot, to map, to take programmatic public action. Who knows what skeletons this process may uncover for Lamont. Either way it is unlikely to be comfortable for the titular leader of Unionism at Holyrood, who seems happy to inertly preside over the fourth poorest constituency in Scotland, while talking about something for nothing, without a thought to the bitterly ironic hypocrisy of the statement. And if she doesnt do a good job in facilitating the people in changing their neighbourhoods and their lives, its hard to imagine all these organised citizens will be such great fans of her come election day in 2016.
