Kenny Farquharson: Flat-pack policies for Labour?

Labour MSP Margaret Curran has been in Sweden looking for ideas on how to get her party back into power.

She's been speaking to members of the Social Democrat party who - like Scottish Labour - know what it's like to be kicked out of government after losing the trust of the people.

So are we going to see some Ikea-style flat-pack policies being imported to help Scottish Labour? Is party leader Iain Gray a dab hand with a screwdriver?

Gray told a Policy Forum meeting in Stirling today: "One lesson we've learned from Sweden is the Social Democrats approach to regaining power. They said to the Swedish people: 'You sacked us now we want to reapply for the job'. The Policy Forum's role is to prepare our job application to the people of Scotland."

Just remember to count the rawl plugs, Iain.
