I've some sympathy with the TTIP commentator. I completely see why the intermediate stages are secret -- because that's where it's being thrashed out, proof read etc.

You can imagine the number of petitions, outraged posts, demands to quit the EU or the US or the universe if every time a junior editor made a typo it was a scandal.

Oh yes. Negotiating in public would be a fairly horrific experience.

The "vote tory!" leaflet that came through the door is hilarious. It's not even bothering to try and sway SNP voters, it's really only concerned with changing the minds of potential Labour voters.

"Suspicious of foreigners and new ideas, and fear an independent Scotland? Boy have we got a party for you!"
