Who is the greatest prime minister UK never had?

[reecejackox]

I would say Jacob Rees mog

[The Slim Reaper]

I mean, it's obviously Corbyn.

[bots]

John Smith easily

[Liam-]

I mean, it's obviously Corbyn.

Yep, not even close

[Oliver_W]

I've never particularly liked any politician, leastways not to the point where I think we missed out from the lack of their premiership.

[joeysteele]

I agree with bots..
I'd say John Smith.

I think he'd have been a really good PM.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Enoch

[MTVN]

Portillo

[Denver]

Penny Mordaunt

[Kate!]

Jeremy without a shadow of a doubt.

[GoldHeart]

Jeremy Corbyn

But i'm curious how someone like Rebecca Long Bailey would have fared , as she had potential .

[Mystic Mock]

Nick Griffin.:hehe:










































Seriously though it's probably Ed Miliband, we could've seen him try to eat more Bacon Sandwiches.:laugh:

I wonder how much damage that picture actually did. The following election led to the ConDem coalition (I think?) so even with the picture it wasn't a storming defeat.

I don't think it probably damaged him dramatically, but it probably damaged him just enough to lose the election.

politicians that were leaders of their party and lost an election fair and square cannot be considered in this group, they had their chance and lost for whatever reason. For me, this should be about MP's that didnt get that opportunity

[joeysteele]

There's another I'd like to mention too.
As I agreed with it too from all I'd learned of him.

My Father was a great admirer of Michael Heseltine.
Thought he'd have been a really good PM.
I think so too.

[Cherie]

John Smith

I would say Jacob Rees mog

:umm2:

I can't tell if people are joking or not ,but the ridiculous fuss over that photo of Milliband eating a sandwich .. for god sake.

He was eating a sandwich & got snapped in a photo, the same people making fun of him .. well how many of them have their photos taken whilst their caught off guard eating?? ,How many of them look unflattering? . Bloke was eating a sandwich ..not sniffing coke .

The reaction was so OTT . How does the way he eats a sandwich determine whether he'll be a bad PM ??.

Poor Ed Milliband couldn't catch a break, people kept wanting his brother as leader instead as they're never satisfied. And his voice got made fun of aswell. Nobody listened to what he was saying. They just mocked him .

Personally I agree with everything you've said in this post.

But being real the Media and a large section of the public loved mocking him for the most silly reasons imaginable.

By a mile, Tony Benn

Like Diane Abbott?

[Crimson Dynamo]
