I had the misfortune to be at a fundraiser where he was the keynote. His punchable face, general smug tossbagness mixed with the free bar made me tell him to piss off when he came schmoozing.
Is an utter, utter arse. If the Labour Party wish to remain unelectable they can do no better than keeping that odious bullying twunt and his equally odious condescending wife on their front bench.
I just can’t see how he get’s referred to as a political ‘heavyweight’ in the media? He pretty much encapsulates everything I dislike about career politicians.
The only current Labour politician that the conservatives seem to fear
Yes, he does know his stuff about the economy, and, let’s face it, Gideon is doing an A+ job of cocking it up.
However, that doesn’t alter the fact that Balls is utterly, utterly unlikeable, and as such, the Labour Party realised that having him as leader would be electoral suicide.

Horrible bastard.
Bloody good work.
He’s a total **** of piers Morgan proportions. I wish the odious reptile the very worst of luck.
Ed Balls is a great,genuine,charismatic,British Labour “bloke”, he has financial solutions oozing from every pore, he has a Fantastic wife and would never ever betray his left wing ethics !
Surely if its to be paid by the companies wanting to offer 4G, then they expect to receipt more from their customers, ie us. Then its not a spare £4bn to spend, but money that if not paid straight into paying off debt will actual just add to our overall debt. Or am I wrong?
The only way Millibean could have picked anyone with less economic credibility as chancellor, would have been to ask good old Gordon if he fancies another crack at it, as it went so well last time.
Good speech from Ed Tescticles today. I think he basically said “we’re skint, we’re £trillion’s in debt and the solution is…. Yes comrades…. lets borrow some money to get out of debt”….. Not really surprising coming from the failure Brown’s right hand man.
And while we’re at it why don’t we rename the country Greece?
I do however agree that we need to spend some money on infrastructure projects to get the economy moving. Makes a change to hear something sensible from captain odious.
If faced with Piers Morgan and Ed Balls, with a baseball bat to hand, I suspect they’d get off without a beating, because my indecision over which one to hit first would give them a chance to leg it!

I was starting to think there were only lefties on STW !
You think so
He’s right on the need for infrastructure spending and even as a raw meat eating rightie I have to admit that. Even if he stole the idea off the tories, who incidentally don’t have the balls (excuse the pun) to carry it through in case they upset the shires e.g. HS2
