Labour is running scared on the Enron scandal, with Labour officials being abusive on BBC’s Newsnight tonight. No influence, however, on a policy which was useful to Enron was adopted fairly quickly after the donation. Oh yes, and Stephen Byers MP was involved as well. Should we believe this? The irony is that Labour changed their attitude towards open markets in the energy field, the Tories stayed consistent. Tory policy was always for open markets in energy.

In a delicious irony, the Labour Party and the Blair government are suffering fallout from the Enron scandal. It seems that Enron leaned hard on the Labour government over energy policy. Enron sponsored events at the Labour Party Conference. Wouldn’t it be rather amusing if it were the Blair Labour government that suffered from this scandal instead of the Bush Whitehouse?
One wonders if the Democrats will soon rue the day they tried to turn the collapse of Enron into a political event.
