spot the difference...actually i think it's fair enough that i mixed them up...they were obv separated at birth!

Newsnightwatchers; Isn't Mary Ann S, is beautifully intelligent

I read miner as mnetter the first time :-/

TDiddy · 14/05/2010 23:03

Not Andy Burnham, please. Just a good looking Blairite

Heathcliffscathy · 14/05/2010 23:05

my sense of burnham is a massive case of style over substance...

Quattrocento · 14/05/2010 23:07

Riiiight

So the alternatives that the Labour Party currently have on offer are:

(a) some guy who was complicit in torturing people and waging unnecessary wars
(b) the younger brother of (a) who may not be quite so bad
(c) A Stoke Newington luvvie who rips off the taxpayer with a smile (covers both Balls and Cooper).

Now I'm not a Labour Party member, but you're really going to have to do better than that. Aren't you? Otherwise we're going to have a decade of Tory party rule. Minimum.

That mouthy bloke on HIGNFY. Isn't he a better option?

TDiddy · 14/05/2010 23:07

sophable- completely agree; Burnham should join a boy band

Jon CRudas will NOT get us back into for office altho' I like him in some ways

TDiddy · 14/05/2010 23:13

God- isn't Andy B vain!

Heathcliffscathy · 14/05/2010 23:14

you see i think that you do need to move left (ECO LEFT).

personally.

quattro makes a fair point though...except you have it wrong about Ed...he is by far best of the lot, it's a really shame he has a brother tbh!

TDiddy · 14/05/2010 23:16

sophable- yes, eco left makes sense but not traditional left. Young left makes sense as well IYWIM.

I am going for Ed M at the moment.

Heathcliffscathy · 14/05/2010 23:16

YOUNG ECO LEFT

sounds really good doesn't it?

Yes Quattrocentro is usually right about these things

I was thinking, I bet Quattrocento is a lawyer- economy and precision- so I clicked and checked and I was correct.

Heathcliffscathy · 14/05/2010 23:19

i want a govt that is prepared to by unpopular for more than 5 seconds!

really radical green policies would be hideously unpopular until people got with the programme.

TDiddy · 14/05/2010 23:19

Sophable- I hope that you work in politics...otherwise it is a waste
