    Dear god! I bet Dave has it on constant loop, while he cracks the bubbly open and celebrates the next election being in the bag

    Absolutely pathetic! It’s depressing that the party was so hollowed out from the inside by brown and blair that that is the best it can muster. We’re all DOOMED! 🙁

    “According to Sky journalist Glen Oglaza, Labour leader Ed disappeared from screens just as he uttered the words: “My message to the British people is….”

    😆

    He’s the Labour party’s Ian Duncan-Smith.

    woman in the street being harrassed by a reporter on c4 news just now looked at his photo and said “he’s a wet lettuce, he’ll never be PM”.

    pretty much, yeah.

    Ok, so this was a very forgetable speech unsurprisingly. Reading the FT’s scrolling text makes you want to weep.But we can forgive dear Ed as he is without doubt Labour’s IDS. But what is not so easy to forgive is when any political party tries to pull the wool over our eyes.

    Cue the speech from the surprisingly articulate Rory Weal. Didn’t it just strike you as being a little to well presented from someone who, ” had nothing, no money, no savings. I owe my entire wellbeing and that of my family to the welfare state, that very same welfare state that is being ruthlessly ripped apart.”

    The depths to which politicians will stoop to. So “poor” old Rory “Welfare State” Weal was in fact:

    1. Independently educated for most of his school life at Colfe’s
    2. Was so strapped for cash that he lived in a £500,000 house (poor lamb)
    3. Father owned Jonathan Weal recruitment, ’til it went bust

    Now of course, the above came from the Daily Torygraph so may need to be treated with some caution. But isn’t this another example of the deceit that political parties think that they can get away with.

    Another staged managed fiasco. But perhaps a good example for independent and then grammar schoool education for dear Harriet H to note.

    That’s a bit unfair – he’s nowhere near as bad

    I was thinking about this the other day – do you think alot of people voted for him as they were happy enough for him to have his turn when they weren’t in power.

    Tories make all the cuts – labour sit back and vote this tool in – wait on a few elections – dump Ed and vote David in whilst the public are sick of tories – massive change under another spun “new labour” type bandwagon.

    Jobs a good un. They’re back and with a media savy popular leader ’97 all over again.

    Didn’t realise Ed was such a big Maggie fan either:-

    “Some of what happened in the 1980s was right. It was right to let people buy their council houses. It was right to cut tax rates of 60, 70, 80 percent. And it was right to change the rules on the closed shop, on strikes before ballots. These changes were right, and we were wrong to oppose it at the time.”

    They won’t waste a decent leader while they have no chance of winning an election! He’ll be out on his ear when there’s a sniff of victory.

    Miliband makes dull speech shocker 🙄
    However Dave couldn’t win an overall majority against the most unpopular PM in living memory so I doubt he has much to crow about.

    On an emotional scale, the only thing that equals my pleasure in seeing an unelectable Labour Party is the despair I feel whenever I remember that the Tories are now in charge.

    Whoever is in charge is guaranteed to suck.

    “Do we want to live in a country where bad things happen to good people? That doesn’t sound right to me. Meanwhile, I’ve discovered there are people in Britain who really aren’t very nice at all and so I think the bad things should be happening to them. Who’s with me?”

    Pledging ‘a new thing for Britain’, Mr Miliband said that Labour can win the next election if they can get just enough people to agree that everything should be really good all the time.

    “For instance, have you noticed that some of the things on television aren’t very good? Surely there should only be good things on television? And lots of great adverts with nice music that you remember the next day.”

    He also called on supermarkets to make sure all the food in their shops is the sort of stuff that everyone likes and that things should not be so expensive, especially for nice people.

    And he said that looters, hackers and expenses fraudsters are all bad people and it is about time some of them were exposed, arrested and imprisoned for a change.

    “In this day and age decent people who have not hacked, looted or frauded should not be going to jail. It’s a disgrace is what it is.”

    His speech reminded me of something John Major would have said, and I think he sounds like John Major with a lisp.

    It just makes me angry to listen to him. To think that I am going to have to vote for him (albeit indirectly) in two or three years time. How depressing. What a bunch of losers. I think it might be a bit better if he’d just blow his bloody nose.

    And don’t get me started on that git Balls.

    I’ve never been so ashamed of the Labour party.

    It was right to let people buy their council houses

    No, it wasn’t. It removed affordable, rented accommodation from the housing pool.

    Oh and all the derogatory comments about Ed +1. Complete and utter waste of space. No policies, no firm ideas, no point.

    Was this ever proved to be a hoax? I’d like to think so…

    He’s an absolute disaster… Maybe it’s part of some longterm plan. But finding that of the 3 main party leaders Cameron’s the one I’ve got the most time for is frankly horrible.

    Mind you, the BBC reporter saying that “some of us here still want to have a big-hitter enter the race…” shows where those in the mainstream media have their allegiances.

    He got a right slating in the R5 phone in yesterday http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b0150gf9
    Worth listening too (skip the news first) just for the lack of composure or ability to speak from the Labour candidate ‘Hazel’.

    LOL @ allthepies…………..how true.

    I don’t think there has ever been a politician so totally devoid of personality, passion or policy.

    I was amazed how nobody stepped in to defend Labour when we were slating Balls-up – maybe nobody fancied defending the indefensible?

    I particularly enjoyed the successful transcendence of darling Anthony

    Saint Tony, last great hope of the party, great reformer, triple election winning, youngest prime minister in a century, longest serving prime minister, leader of the boom, saviour of the NHS, good friday agreement, minimum wage introducing, human rights act, Scottish and welsh devolution delivering hero of the party…

    …to pantomime baddy (boo, hiss!)

    Nice work Ed 😈

    His piece on the 10 oclock news last night had an interesting line ‘hey I’m a serious guy with a serious message’ – you can say that all you want but no one will take you serioulsy.

    For the labour partyyh to have any hope of winning the next election then they need a strong, charismatic leader.

    I’m sorry but I think you’ll have to explain this to me. Surely you’re not suggesting that Ed isn’t British? Because the last time I checked he was. And if you were trying to make an oh-so-clever reference to Ralph Miliband being a Jewish refugee in the 1940s… well then it might be worth knowing that he was born in Belgium.

    Ignorant and stupid.
