Bloomer: Ms Dugdale appeared to believe Catherine Stihler was still an MEP
KEZIA DUGDALE was accused of “farcical” behaviour today after she demanded a speaking slot at Scottish Labour’s annual conference for a leading Labour rightwinger who has in fact resigned.
In a letter to her successor Richard Leonard, the former Scottish Labour leader said there was “no formal opportunity” for MEPs Catherine Stihler and David Martin to address the party’s conference in Dundee this weekend.
But Ms Stihler actually resigned from the European Parliament in January to take up a private-sector role.
