Does the Labour party need a leader with a bit more oomph?

I hate the Tories. However, they could let the UK burn to ashes and STILL Ed would be too much of a blithering idiot to be a realistic alternative as Prime Minister.





Can Ed Miliband - in any universe - really be considered a future Prime Minister?|||The Labour Party needs to expel its entire front bench as Tory entryists, and replace them with honest socialists who have done something with their lives other than swim in the shite of the professional politicians' septic tank, which the present lot have swum in since their Oxford days.





Oxford Mafia Out!|||The last time the UK burned to ashes, they threw out a PM warlord bulldog with plenty of oomph and replaced him with a total non-entity, who was also a Labour Leader. This was the sort of PM who could be sitting in the room alone with you, and by the time you went for a leak you had forgotten his name. It was this leader that set up the NHS and introduced a Social Security system that has been sort-of functioning ever since.



We live in hope. Let's hope to God his party can re-establish its philosophical integrity, and that Ed will listen to his party's thinkers and workers, rather than to its stylists.

Ed is PM elect.





However much I hate Labour and its followers I love Tony Blair and I think David Milliband would have been more appealing as he is a Blair mini me as opposed to Ed who is Mini Gordon Brown.|||When one main party has policies which can only generate serious long-term economic problems, but receives NOTHING but positive praise from the "news" media: like the Conservatives do, and the other main party has far more benign and compassionate policies, offering long-term stability and sustainable moderate growth, but receives NOTHING but negative criticism in the "news" media, then it is almost impossible for humans to understand that they are being manipulated %26amp; controlled. In today's society, if you openly admit that you're socialist, you are ridiculed; while it is still perfectly acceptable to support the short-sighted, everything to the rich, unemployment increasing, economy destroying, single-parent blaming, crime level increasing, suicide rate increasing, greedy, selfish, uncaring Conservatives ideology. Murdoch has done this. Even today, as he is being attacked, he still controls the world. The truth is that The Lord God himself could be at the head of the Labour party, but with the vile biassed reporting in the "news" media, then he too would be presented as weak, slow, unthinking and unelectable. The ONLY way that we humans can begin to think again is by removing the entire "news" media from our lives. I did this some time ago and my life improved a million-fold.



(Research ELF waves if you can)|||What is it with the British...There are more than three political parties y'know.......I tell you what labour needs. Labour needs to be put on trial for treason after the deliberate mess it made of this country, Blaire and the top five also need to face trial for war crimes. That done, labour needs to be thrown in the political scrap heap where it belongs. In thirteen years labour caused more damage to this country than was caused in both world wars. Britain has never seen a more destructive traitor government.|||He was voted in by the Unions and is in hock to them. He can walk into an empty room and it will still be empty.





And like most of today's politicians (including Cameron), he has never had a proper job ourside Westminster in his life.|||I'm not so much concerned with Ed Miliband's lack of "oomph", as his party's policies. Their total and utter contempt for the low paid bothers me far more.|||He looks like a little Brat, who would vote in a leader who stabbed his own brother in the back? this guy has no soul at all he makes the Lizard people ruling the World look ethical.|||There is not much differnce these days, the days of the 'working man's party' are long gone , they are all college boys now.|||So you're saying Ed Miliband is worse than cleggy boy?





The sad thing is i agree with you.|||bachmann 2012!|||Clegg, Cameron and Miliband came from the same mo(u)ld.|||Yes Labour need a much more robust leader than Milliband. I do wish that Ed had not been chosen, but he was and unless something happens to him, he is there to stay. One thing for sure, we all want to see the back of Cameron and Clegg, the sooner the better.
