And Damian McBride is not the only Labour figure with doubts about Ed Miliband ...



'Too weak to stand up for himself'
'He just gets gamed out every day'
'No positive messages to communicate to anyone...no policies which will persuade them'

That's what people are saying about Ed Miliband.

But those quotes aren't from Conservatives, or UKIP or Lib Dems - they're from high-profile Labour figures.

Across the nation, Labour MPs, advisers and supporters agree on one thing: Ed Miliband's just not up to it.

If Mr Milliband's own party do not believe he is up to it, then we should listen. Labour's only answers are more spending, more taxes and more debt than future generations can ever hope to pay off.

We can't let an Ed Miliband-led Labour Party win the next election and get into power. They would take Britain backwards.

losing the next general election would be in a way bad for the labour party, but not that bad. It would actually be far worse for them to win under Ed.

if you think about it, Labour were pretty much unelectable during the 80's and the first half of the 90's thanks to their past record, and Neil was never going to be the answer.

It took blair with his "things can only getter better song and good showmanship to finally break that seal, though to do that had to change the party, scrapping clause 4 and creating Nulabour.

now a certain someone took the fall when it all went wrong (tony knew when to bail out) and right now the labour party dont look so attractive, though they can fool a few with "it was a global recession caused by the tory bankers" line at the moment, if ed does win and they get a term now, then following that one term the long game would be very bleak for them.

I think a lot of the labour club realise this

At the moment i would say the most likely outcome is another hung parliament and thatch not a bad thing, so long as it ends in a minority government, thus more control over them.

a lib lab coalition would be bad, both for the parties and the voters.
though i am not sure where lib votes would come from.

UKIP i dont think have the support in concentrated areas, sure they done ok under PR but under FPTP? not so sure.

Though its impossible to say at this stage, it is always fun to try.

Nick Herbert on his visit to flood hit areas of Cumbria

Please note that the post below was published more than ten year ago on 21st November 2009 Nick Herbert MP, shadow cabinet member for the Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs, was in Cumbria this morning to see the areas affected by the flooding. He writes on Conservative Home about his visit. Here is an extract. I’ve been in Cumbria today to see the areas affected by the floods. I arrived early in Keswick where I met officials from the Environment Agency. Although the river levels had fallen considerably and homes were no longer flooded, the damage to homes had been done. And the water which had got into houses wasn’t just from the river – it was foul water which had risen from the drains. I talked to fire crews who were pumping flood water back into the river, and discovered that they were from Tyne & Wear and Lancashire. They had been called in at an hours’ notice and had been working on the scene ever since, staying at a local hotel. You cannot fail to be impressed by the

"Wise men profit more from fools than fools from wise men; for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools, but fools do not imitate the successes of the wise."  ( Cato the Elder , who lived 234 BC - 149 BC, quoted in "Lives" by Plutarch.) There is a similar saying by Germany's Iron Chancellor, Otto von Bismarck: Benjamin Franklin is supposed to have put the same saying in a more humorous form: "Wise men profit by the mistakes of others, while fools will not learn even from their own blunders." See also this thread on the "Quote Investigator" website . Let us all be wise and learn from the events of the last few days.

Quote of the day 24th July 2020

I was moved to put the passage below forward as a quote today when I saw a horrible post on twitter from someone writing that it was "excellent" that someone who took a different view from her about Brexit had died. I won't write which way round it was so that all the Remain supporters can assume the post was from a Brexit fanatic welcoming the death of a remainer and all the Leavers can assume it was a Remainiac welcoming one less Brexiteer. There's been plenty of nasty stuff on both sides but if you catch anyone of your own viewpoint  posting something like that who might listen to you, please do call them out on it - and point out that they're giving everyone on your side of the argument a bad name. Anyway, here's the quote from John Donne.
