Are you presuming that all brands fans aren't already registered to vote? I'm a brand fan, I'm registered to vote.... :smug:

Well at least Ed Miliband is perhaps trying to find out why people don't vote and what can be done to help persuade them to.
If you don't talk to those who don't,nothing will ever be learned.

I could just see the slating going on, had Ed Miliband actually gone to see Brand before the deadline to register to vote was passed.
As it is he went after it has passed,a good move indeed.
Ed Miliband also already knows he has a fair amount of support from younger voters anyway, as opposed to the Conservatives who are losing the younger voters from the polling bigtime.

Also too,from younger people today, who may or may not vote, that we came across,David Cameron has done himself no favours at all virtually describing Brand as irrelevant.

get real joey it was a cheap political stunt that seems to have largely backfired

meanwhile DC was on Jeremy Vine today (the largest radio station in the UK) and was excellent

well with two rich champagne socialists, in the same room, what do you expect, miliband and brand are the two biggest snakes I have every seen on tv.

brand is 40

:umm2:

Time he acted his age.

Time he got all politically and socially aware.....oh wait.

There's nothing wrong with it Niamh at all, I agree.

When you were to ever balance your views you can then justifiably tell others to get real.

I am never likely to agree with you anyway so I really cannot get why you even respond to any post I make.

I never even actually bothered to read your post until you responded to one of mine with your usual put down too that I have come to expect all the time from you.
Which is why I largely ignore your posts.

It makes it even sweeter that it didn't backfire though Joey :D
Anyone who thinks that Daves interviews aren't cleverly scripted spin needs to get real.

yes joey, just you read your fanmail

that is sure to get you elected in the future..

:idc:

I am sure it hasn't backfired Kizzy, it is not what I have heard on the streets and doorsteps today.

What I have found, are many people very suspiciously wondering why it is that were David Cameron to win on May 7th, he would actually 'need' to bring in a law to make him keep to his word.

I found far more negatives as to that with only very few negatives indeed as to Ed Miliband's visit and chat to Russell Brand.

I love the bitter reaction that this has provoked from the right wing press they were so desperate to discredit the interview because in the past they have held a lot of power with political partys having to cosy up to them to ensure election storys are spun in their favour.
The Brand Milliband interview has come about as a product of Social media and the internet and takes the press out of the equation weakening the stranglehold and power the rich media tycoons can wield in trying to influence the outcome of an election.
They are spitting chips and i love it.
Whether by accident or intention the interview has gone down really well with the majority of people.

I would have loved it seeing as he had a free reign to be a little freer with his opinion, he might have pushed it and been a tad more controversial but it's too risky I guess, can't blow it now :D

here for the tory landslide next week.

Really just you avoid me please and kindly keep your sarcasm to yourself too. What I do or intend to do in life is nothing at all to do with you.

I am not interested in fanmail.
I can get on with near everyone but what I see as false humour and sarcasm are things I avoid like the plague and the people who do it too.

I actually couldn't care one tiny jot as to whether you consider me electable material or not,in fact your opinions, just as mine as clearly are to you, are not in the slightest or the remotest interest to me.

It has indeed bobnot.
Really good points you mention too.
