The resurrection of the undead

That's the problem with zombies; you put them in their coffins and you nail down the lids, but soon after they are walking about, waving their shrouds and scaring people. The Sunday Herald has found one:
LABOUR'S FORMER first minister has severely criticised his party for running a"negative" and "extreme" Holyrood election campaign driven by politicians in London.
Henry McLeish said Labour's anti-independence message bore the hallmarks of a polarising approach to politics more associated with President George W Bush.
In an interview with the Sunday Herald, he also claimed his successor as first minister, Jack McConnell, is not in charge of his party's message and urged his colleagues to change their strategy.

Just like the nationalists: blame it all on London and, while you're at it, take a side-swipe at Mr McConnell.
