Default Ed Milliband.........thoughts.

Any thoughts on Ed Milliband as Labour leader, potential PM, or anything else for that matter.
Saw him on tv on the lunchtime news.

He doesn't impress me, but there again none of the current crop of frontline politicians do. He looks like a failed school teacher. Couldn't handle the class so he found a job where he could talk for a living.

You shouldn't vote you know.
It just encourages them

Gave him a 3 here.

Agree with the wishy washy. Doesn't really seem to say anything worthwhile. Recently seems to be attempting to blame all the ills of the UK on the ConDems yet can't be too viscious because most of the low police numbers, failing schools and hospitals is mostly due to labours self serving attitute towards the end of their reign.

Personally I think the wrong Milleband won although I'm not sure what else the other one could have done any better.

Saw a bit of newsnight last night - Harriet Harmen and that weaselly little man Goves having a set to over the riots. Both fill me with bile.

I gave him 10/10 as personally, I'm delighted that he's the leader of the Labour party.

Has no ability but to criticise others and has no alternate plan of his own for the policies/parties he opposes, just supports the ideas of others where he see fits. His shadow cabinet is a farce of MPs ill equipped for the role they stand in (for example: Postman Pat Johnson - a man who can't add up as Shadow Chancellor followed by Ed *****, a man at the front of a government with proven track record of failed economic policies which he refuses to fully acknowledge and then has to audacity to criticise the opposition for the fallout on his old government's economic failings).

Plus he spits when he talks....can you imagine how embarrassing he would be to be a leader of our country on the global stage?

Voted 1 cos there aint a zero on the poll, he's Labia, says it all!!!!!!!!

Actually thinking about it, Labour wouldn't be too bad if they only stayed in office for four years every twenty then handed it back to the Torys.

S'OK, I'm covered in nomex.

When ever I see him talk, the words 'sit down little boy' come to mind, Labour would be far better off with David Miliband at the helm

David went up in my opinion when he walked out of front line government following his brother's appointment as leader.

Showed he has alot more integrity than all of the other front line members in his party; including his little worm of a brother.

You'll see the far more competent sibbling appear a few years down the line. The current lot are caretakers and fall guys.

I have lost faith in just about all politicians these days, but there is no way I could support one who speaks out of the side of his mouth!

I am with Les , talking from the corner of the mouth is disturbing.
I see him as a weasel - For him to ever become PM of Britain would be the final straw . Britain to have any credibility on the world stage need a LEADER that represents the people of this land .
CHURCHILL was the last person that fits this description.
He still arguably, remains as the most influential person that Britain and perhaps the world owes their freedom too.

I agree, it should have been David.
He was foreign secretary for quite some time under labour if i remember correctly.
I was always interested in what he had to say.
Ed sounds like he has a f&cking plumb in his mouth and talks nothing but of how 'Labour would have done things'.

That explains the two 5/10 votes, then.

He's a tool. If it was marks out of ten for making you want to repeatedly jump on his head then he'd get the perfect 10.

At other stuff though, like qualifying to clean the dog turds off the pavements outside parliament, he fails miserably.
