I am very dismayed that three Labour MPs - one of whom was a Cabinet minister in the last Government - are now acting as advisers to the new Conservative - Liberal Democrat Coalition.

Kate Hoey and Frank Field were always right-leaning mavericks, but it is shocking that John Hutton, who actually sat in the Cabinet during the last Labour Government, is now helping the Tory-led Coalition.

I can only agree wholeheartedly with the comments made by the former Deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott who, quite rightly, has branded Mr Hutton a 'collaborator'.

The Labour Party does not need any of their MPs supporting a Coalition Government that is poised, in next week's Budget, to make the most savage cuts to public spending in a generation.

A chilling agenda, which will no doubt be carried on with the Autumn Spending Round and right through the lifetime of this Parliament.

As Labour face their biggest battle in years, opposing the draconian economic measures about to unleashed on the British people, dissent from their own ranks is the last thing they need.
