Liberal caucus gagged by Iggy

Firebrand: Iggy gags caucus III

Well, today comes confirmation that Ignatieff is muzzling his caucus
and is attempting to control the access his MPs have to the media. The Globe and Mail reports that

At his first caucus meeting as leader in December, [Ignatieff] made it clear the caucus speaks with one voice and it is his.

“He
laid down the law at the beginning. You could hear a pin drop,” a
Liberal insider said about the way Mr. Ignatieff outlined the new
one-voice strategy. He said Mr. Ignatieff possesses discipline and
firmness. “You know when you leave the room who the leader is.”

In addition, Ignatieff is banning "Liberal strategists" from appearing on TV panels without approval.
