One thing I did find interesting today, during the questioning, ina rebuttal answer Milliband when discussing the proposed cap on housing benefits at £21,000 or so a year said,
'This will cost 82,000 people their homes, they've already started booking the bed&breakfasts'
Hilarious as he was trying to be, he lost any credibility he may have had with me in that single remark.
They won't lose 'their' homes, they were not 'their' homes to begin with, they make have to move to new rental accomodation, which they will get paid for. It seemed to demonstrate absolutely no understanding of the topic in my opinion. Neither in figures or legitimacy.
As for the OP, man speaks like he is king of the frog people.
Might stop some voting for him.

Ahh, the context being a comment about Ed Balls, in a thread about Ed Miliband. Forgive me for wanting clarification before I replied.
I guess I've just never subscribed to the practice of calling people I have ideological disagreements with, idiots. David Cameron, for example. I have a huge difference of opinion with him on many things, but I wouldn't ever call him an idiot.
Given the offshoot was about Ed Balls being the economic wizz kid (which politicians aren't these days?) I thought the context would have been clear.
Apologies.
Anyway, where exactly has flash Gordon been recently?
Has he actually returned to the house to earn his pay and represent Kirkaldy or is he still sulking?
What makes a persons 'home' is surely somewhat subjective.
I wouldn't personally hold him dry on that direct definition of the word; I'd be more inclined about the silly B&B quip etc.

And with one bound the Bankers are free to roam, rape and pillage again . . . as a matter of interest, didn't Cameron's family have a City background - still, I'm sure that he will be as hard on them as on anyone else

But you forgot one thing, the bankers are not the Vikings.

No the vikings at least left some culture behind
You were proud of Tony Blair?
Shock horror. I was proud to have Tony as our prime minister, and probably would be today, had the Labour party not been stupid enough to force him to resign.
Just noticed your edit now.
No, that has nothing to do with it what so ever. Ideological dissagreements. There are many nationalists that I think are complete and utter tools.
My brother is an idiot, and he really can be. He's my brother, but I still call him an idiot.
David Cameron is an idiot. Clumbsy ignorant ****** as far as I am concerned.
Labour deserve to swing from the gallows.
overall yes
No, he was a reasonable PM but untrustworthy, shifty, and a wide-eyed barrow boy. What other traits do you need to be a PM.

Cast your mind back to 1997 people. Tony Blair had lead a crashing victory, John Major resigned from the Conservative party leadership promptly and in a dignified manor.
What came next, well the Tories put William Hague in the hot seat. Not the William Hague we have now, but a wet behind the ears version. No one credible wanted the job. Because anyone credible wanted to stay out of the crossfire while the party sorted it's self out. I wasn't till Micheal Howard took the reigns that things really looked steady.
My guess is that the next serious Labour leader will be a front bencher from the Blair era.

Fair enough... I guess I just don't rate my intelligence highly enough to call someone even remotely intelligent an idiot.
You think the Labour party deserve to be put to death?
