    When will the country wake up to this idiots performance as a leader. Trouble is they won’t. Most in denial. Especially the brexit voters. A high percentage that didn’t know what the hell they were voting for. Sadly more my generations than the younger ones.
    Stubborn little Englanders. That swallowed boris’s lies and won’t admit it. Biggest Tawt ever with the morals of a snake in the grass. TBH not sure who’s worse him or that bitch. We knew where we were at with her in charge. Both cnuts by the way. One or two traitors to their class on here look up to these cnuts. But free country I suppose. That’s why we’re facked. The working class standing up for those who chose to **** all over em. Rant over.

    Ed Milliband is my local MP.

    I wrote to him last year about a few things, mainly Brexit and received a nice personal letter back. He even invited me to go and meet him at Westminster, which unfortunately I was unable to do.

    We even got a Christmas card from him last year with a lovely picture of him on the front.

    He does seem like great MP and one who really cares about his constituency.

    Everyone has to obey the law. Except Tories if it doesn’t suit them. I’m becoming more and more embarrassed to be British

    Many people perceive Ed Milliband and Jeremy Corbyn too left wing and out of touch with traditional working class areas. Dan Jarvis has his own agenda and most of his ambition would not be satisfied as a parliamentary MP. Like the way in which Keir Starmer has united the Labour party but he needs to define his main policies, There have only ever been 6 Labour Prime Ministers it is fundamentally a Tory run country with Labour the only realistic opposition even though David Cameron's coalition government kept many of Labours economic policies,

    It's going to run and run. At a time they are telling us to abide by stuff such as the rule of six, they cannot follow their own advice by sticking to international law.

    Yeah, get a card off him every year. Well, from his office presumably.

    One year the photo was the piss take Channel 4’s the last leg did of him on a motorbike eating a bacon sandwich. I’ve met him a fair few times, he’s not local obviously but at least he understands us. I like him, he got a bad ride as the leader. As did Corbyn after him.

    If Ed had the ‘box office’ appeal as his brother probably would have had in the role, I fancy he’d have got into number 10.

    Here you get a proper look at our prime minister. He is not some kind of leader and he isn't even a witty showman like he tries to portray, he is an overgrown public school child completely out of his depth with no clue, no answers and no ideas.

    That's one thing I don't understand. Why is bananaman David considered to be more electable/better than Ed?

    At least Ed took the defeat and has stayed on, and is doing a good job, as testimony here and yesterday's performance shows, rather than running off to the US for think tank money. He did a decent job as shadow energy minister too, the caps coming in now were stuff he ran on and pushed for as opposition.

    Absolutely dismantled Johnson there. Ironic that he turned up for an easy ride with Starmer self isolating...

    Yet, all the major news outlets will get him blustering for 20 seconds about "will of the people" and calling Labour MPs traitors and that will be enough to convince the majority of the thickos that voted for him.

    We would likely be going through a (delayed from May) General Election at some time around now at the end of Ed's first term as PM.

    Arguably, David Milliband was the best PM the Country never had. Such a shame that the Unions
    endorsed brother Ed for the Labour leadership. Like Corbyn and Kinnock, Murdoch & CO's smears
    and lies ensured that he would be forever unelectable.

    Did anyone else watch the documentary on the Murdoch empire.? Quite wrong that he was allowed
    to get so close to Cameron and his henchmen. It's also "criminal" , that following the News of the World phone
    hacking scandal , his very future involvement in newspapers, television and " anything" media related should
    have been brought to an end.
