Anyone else think ed is just what the country could do with. He's not bothered by the way he looks and image, he just gets on with it. The son of polish immigrants so has had to work his way up. Went to a rough London comprehensive school, the same as urban band n dubs! Hes promising a better deal to the young and to stop the savage cuts. I can't think of any good reason not vote for him.

People go on about him having two kitchens and looking funny when eating a sand wedge. But he and his wife have had to work for two kitchen and o think good for them. We all look dodgy eating too!

Chilli run quick it appears to be catching !!!!

I will vote Labour because the alternative is awful - I work in children's services - they have destroyed services to the most vulnerable and the most needy - but children don't vote so who gives a shit

I don't care what people think of Ed - I'm voting for the party

and I like Europe so bite me Grin

No. I think he'd make a good uni lecturer. Or a lawyer, maybe. But as PM/leader of the country...nah..no charisma/presence and doesn't appear to have the courage of his own convictions. Couldn't stand Tony Blair but at least you knew what he was on about..I don't even know what Milliband's policies truly are, and Im a lifelong Labour voter.

I'm also baffled nosey about the 2 kitchens thing

We looked at a house with 2 kitchens, I didn't know it was posh! It was just downwind of the town sewage works & in catchment for a school in special measures. They said kitchen-2 was brilliant as a space for teenagers to do their thing (not just cooking but entertaining friends, too) while leaving another space hygienic.

I totally agree with you MistressDeeCee. Harold Wilson sent both of his DC to private school etc. etc. He could have had 6 kitchens as far as I know He had no charisma but at least he had gravitas. Blair was a complete barsteward but he could communicate with the public.

Loved his reasoning for the inheritance tax dodge - "Mummy made me do it." Spoken like a true leader Hmm.
