clicky
It seems hes upset that the labour party are not doing what he wants. Next will come the threats of "having to reconsider the funding we give the labour party"
Its not his stomach but his back he needs to worry about. |

Well, we’ve seen the end of Labour as anything that purports to support the working people of the country. They’ve lurched further to the right under Miliband, and can easily have the terms “class traitors” applied now. So, at the next General Election, which flavour of Conservatism do you want? |

Since when do the political parties in this country represent the working people of this country? Like anyone in a position of power, they're only looking out for themselves. |

That's been the case since Tory Blair took office. How I wish John Smith had survived long enough to serve as PM... |

Can the labour party really be class traitors when they have openly sworn to make Britain a classless society? |

Well, even if you ignore the bracketing of 'class', the fact is the various political parties do have natural 'constituencies'. And it's probably fair to say that the current recession, and the incumbent government policies to rectify it, is causing the most pain in what would naturally be Labour's constituency of voters. For labour to therefore endorse those policies seems to me... politically naive, at best. You wouldn't expect a Tory opposition to be saying an 85% high earners tax rate was a good thing, not would you expect a Liberal opposition to be calling for the government to re-introduce the death penalty. Regardless of what Ed Milliband's ambitions for the country are, public statements like this aren't getting him anywhere nearer being elected. If I was at all cynical, I might suggest he didn't know about this until he it in read the papers and this is Ed Balls getting his own back for not winning the leadership election. After all, if Labour get battered in the next election, it'll be Milliband who gets in neck, not Balls. (note: It is almost impossible to present any kind of comment on anything the shadow chancellor says without it ending up as some kind of double-entendre at some point) Jon |

I can't see anyone voting to have a Prime Minister Balls. |

The headline writers are praying for that. Imagine a prime minister called Balls. It would start with "British public in election balls-up" and get better every day! |
