Anyone who has followed politics in the last decade will know Kennedy's over foindness of wine is the worst-kept secret in Westminster.

Re: West Ender - His drink problem is significant because, unlike in Winston's time, we face apt legislation on things like licensing laws and binge drinking measures...and the press will always pounce on a (perceived) hypocritical leader.

I think a leadership election has come at the worst possible time for the party, with the local elections due in May. But at leas Kennedy is trying to be as transparent as he can.
