Ed Miliband's Face

What is going on here?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-13745118

He’s being a spiteful, back-stabbing champagne socialist.

Just not very well.

Hopefully Ed Miliband’s face isn’t of any importance. Tragically I suspect that it is.

He’s showing the size of balls he’d need to make a difference.

New Wallace and gromit character

..

Ed Miliband doesn’t stand a chance.

A better chance than David Cameron apparently :

“Labour leader Ed Miliband did not do so well. He was ranked 65th sexiest male, but at least he was 23 places ahead of PM David Cameron in 88th.”

EDIT : That was in response to Tiger6791’s now edited post.

I could punch Miliband for a while…..but I could go much longer on this smug bastard:

I could punch Miliband for a while

That would be like picking on the weedy kid at school. Ya big bully.

Derek – I would gladly hold your coat.

I just looked up ‘Smug bastards’ in the dictionary, and this picture was beside it:

Love the Miliband hating

He does seem to manage getting snapped in awkward expressions rather often[/url]

Ernie has a point though, his face really shouldn’t be a major issue, but in modern politics it seems that it is.

Now, Ed Balls on the other hand, I would gladly pummel to a pulp with a cricket bat. Not just his face, either.

Bully’s sidekick

ed and ed are the greatest gifts anyone ever gave the tories.

We’ve all got “if the wind changes” photos of ourselves and mates looking a bit peculiar.

Clearly there must be a market for cameras that take very hi res photos at a gazillion frames per second. Then take it back to Wapping and get the work experience lad to trawl through several hundred pictures until you find the magic ‘between facial expressions’ shot that makes your subject look like a tool/psychopath. I chuckle at these pictures but they are hardly representative of anyone’s default facial expression and a bit sad that newspapers have to resort to this to get our interest.

I bet even Cameron could be snapped accidentally looking humble if you snapped for long enough. 😉

Perhaps he’s demonstrating what a large percentage of the population want to do with the throats of millionaire tory boys.

Perhaps.

Yet even with a leader who 51% of the public think is the wrong choice they’re still polling higher than the tories…

Just out of interest, exactly what has he done or said to make the individuals concerned dislike him so much.
I’m talking specifics here, not just the fact that he represents the Labour Party?

I’d much rather he was the reincarnation of John Smith, ready to lead a willing populace into a glorious socialist future, but it’s not going to happen just yet.

So I ask again, why do you hate him so much?
Specifics please, or I’ll just assume you’re a Tory, and no one wants that now do we?

Every time I see him raising his voice at PMQ’s, my mind is instantly transported to this

Welease Woderwick!!!! The labour party are at the same point now as the Tories were when they elected Ian Duncan Smith as leader. Effing clueless! Actually, Ed Milliband makes Ian Duncan Smith look like a towering political colossus. Call-me-Dave must have been laughing his tits off when Labour (actually… the unions) elected that Muppet

In answer to your question RS, announcing 20-odd ‘policy reviews’ sends out one clear message. It says “I haven’t got a **** clue what to think. I haven’t a independent thought in my head, let alone an ideology. Please tell me what you think, then I’ll regurgitate it back to you”. Its Blair’s focus-group mania taken to its logical conclusion. It may want to be ‘open and democratic’, in reality its weak and pathetic, from a man who is the physical embodiment of the phrase ‘weak and pathetic’.

You can hate Dave (I bloody do!) but he’s absolutely 200% focused on what he wants (or is Driven!) to do.

Call-me-Dave must have been laughing his tits off when Labour (actually… the unions) elected that Muppet

But he still can’t catch his party in the polls, how incompetent must Cameron be?

good call Binners and yes a poor choics as leader a few years fot rying to sort it out then he resigns/sacked
If you saw the speech he and dave gave [ one after the other] re Prince philip it was obvious who was the best orator.
Wont be succesful IMHO a bit tlike a modern day Michael foot except he troes and foot did not

I just looked up ‘Smug bastards’ in the dictionary, and this picture was beside it:

1) Why did you have to look those words up in the dictionary???
2) Why does your dictionary have pictures in it!!???

But he still can’t catch his party in the polls, how incompetent must Cameron be?

Bet he’s never PM though.

The labour party are at the same point now as the Tories were when they elected Ian Duncan Smith as leader

Voter intention polls

November 2002

Con 30%
Lab 42%

June 2011

Con 37%
Lab 42%

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

So as no one can actually articulate exactly what he has said or done to make them hate him so much, I’ll just assume you’re a bunch of sad, Tory right whingers (sic), incapable of rational thought or discussion 😀

As you were.

Lifer – You are demonstrating perfectly the labour mindset. They just don’t get it!.

It doesn’t matter one **** jot what voter intentions are now. We’re 4 years off an election. It matters in approximately 3 years and 9 months tine. By which time Dave will have privatised everything, and will have reduced the deficit by enough to offer some nice juicy tax cuts to the usual gullible Sun-reading Muppet’s

i don’t hate ed milliband – i just think he’s a bit useless.

his job should be quite easy*, but he doesn’t seem very good at it.

(*making life hard for the tories)

(same sort of thing applies to balls)

You are demonstrating perfectly the labour mindset

No, my point was the Labour aren’t in the same position as the Tories were under IDS. I’m not a Labour voter btw.

and will have reduced the deficit

You reckon?

What is going on here?

He’s thinking about his brother…

I’ll rephrase that then. Give the impression, fully supported by the usual right wing fan-boys in the press, that they have reduced the deficit.

Either way, I’m sure Dave is preying that Ed is still labour leader. Somehow, I doubt he will be though

……Is a face I’d never get bored of punching… Along with many other labour MP’s.

Along with many other labour MP’s.

He just reminds me of Wallace, from Wallace and Gromit.

I suspect Wallace might make a better leader 😉

I suspect Grommit might be even better 🙂

Would love to see him at PMQs! That eyebrow raise would be a matchwinner!

Eff-Ayy-Cee-Tee.

“More cheese Mr. Speaker” 🙂

David Cameron, George Osbourne and Ed Milliband all look a bit weird. Dave’s really shiny and looks like his face is too small for his head, George looks like a comedian’s impression of a stereotypical smug Tory tosser, and Ed looks a bit like a fish (apart from in the OP’s post, where he looks like an angry fish). Nick Clegg at least looks vaguely human, and not like some sort of lizard crammed into a human suit.

Sadly regardless of political persuasion, they’re all unprincipled tossers just out for more power by any means possible. I don’t care if the people running the country look like Sloth from the Goonies or Tom Hiddleston, I’d just like somebody in power who isn’t a complete wankhat.

Private Eye’s Mr MiliBean cartoon strip finished Ed off as a credible politician for me.

Some caricatures, like David Steel’s Spitting Image puppet or Steve Bell’s portrayal of John Major with his Y-fronts on outside his suit, nail their subjects so successfully that there is simply no way back for them.
