Chuck, I agree American politicians should restrain themselves at this time even if what they say may be true. There is no doubt however, that the Labour Party is doing a triple somersault with pike and ending in a belly flop. I feel a little for Rudd who has to try and salvage the situation and he di puit on a brave face when Maxine got into him tonight on the 7.30 report - and she married to a Labour identity.
On balance I suspect Armitage's statement might help the Labour Party.
