So Ed agrees with the PM about Ukraine?


What a fecking waste of British Question Time

dammit... missed it

Watch online

But a waste of time
nothing about the UK from him

Well for me it was a bit better to see that agreement is there as to Ukraine,although hardly unexpected.

However in all truth the biggest waste of time is PMQ's itself.
David Cameron slammed Gordon Brown for avoiding answring the questions put, I don't think I have learned a single thing from David Cameron in his exchanges with Ed Miliband at PMQ's ever.

All Cameron does is go on about the last Govt. and asks the opposition what would they do, he seems to totally miss the point it is he who has to answer the questions and the rest of Parliament and Ed Miliband to ask the questions, not vice versa.

The whole thing has got far worse with David Cameron than it even was before. I near find the whole shambles an embarrassment to watch really now.

For me it is a waste of time asking David Cameron questions at all, he just never answers them.

Yes

pmq is waste of time your right pm just trying to score point the fecker

PMQ's is a bunch of public school boys taunting and laughing at each other. It's cringe-worthy.

I agree........it's just a point scoring contest now. A performance where one side tries to trump the other and get the loudest cheers.

probably gotten a lot worse since TV camera's were installed. This ironically was done to show Parliament to the public as the home of democracy where serious debate and discussion could be undertaken....

Some hope....!!!!

I miss his much more pleasant looking brother.. whatever became of the David Milliband?

Imagine a world where David Milliband was PM, and Hillary was President...

It would be a much nicer world i think...

I understand lostalex that David Miliband went to the States to some position there.
I agree he would have been better PM for the UK than Ed and I also would have liked to see and still hope it may happen for Hilary to be President too.

I was surprised Ed Miliband beat his brother David to the leadership of the Labour Party , I was then even more surprised to see David Miliband as a result of his defeat give up British politics and go to the US for work .

Shows he was never really that serious about being a politician in Britain , especially if he could just throw in the towel because his brother beat him...

Yaw boo sucks ... How old are you David ??

I don't see it that way, David was naturally bruised by his Brothers win over him and it was a very narrow one,mainly thanks to the Union votes.

However, being fair it would have been difficult for David to have remained really active in politics in the UK, I hope however that he will return in the future at some time.
The reason it would have been difficult would have been for both Ed as leader and David as an MP or Cabinet Minister and also for the Labour party too.

The media would have been hounding them and looking for the slightest disagreements between them,always trying to get one or the other to say something against each other.
Any slight disagreement would have been blown out of all proportion and would have been all we heard about which would have damaged Ed as leader,David as a politician and the Labour party at large too.

I was a bit saddened at David leaving UK politics but I can see why he felt for his good and his Brothers leadership but also for the Party's good in the main that it was in this case the best course of action to take.
Good luck to him and I hope he does well in his career in the States.

My father calls Ed Miliband 'Cain' because he shafted his brother.

:joker:Good one.

Personally, I couldn't see any situation where I would run against one of my Brothers for anything.
However politics is about seizing the chances when they come and for me it showed a ruthless streak in Ed Miliband in actually taking his Brother on for the leadership.

I remember David Miliband saying while the campaigning was going on for the leadership that if he thought Ed would make a better leader for Labour than him then he would be running Ed's campaign.

However in fact, had I been anything to do with Labour at the time then really neither would have been my first choice for leader anyway of who was standing.

My mother calls Thatcher 'slut' because she shafted everyone.. :joker:

...and David Cameron "pervert", because he wants to see us all shafting each other? :D

Ed Miliband has the Face for radio and the voice for Films (Silent movies)

It is really bad now, it makes me feel ashamed of our parliament really,to have this childish nonsense wek after week and learning absolutely nothing from the man who actually leads the Country.

If he isn't going to answer the opposition leader's questions then why bother even being there at all.
As you say it is cringe-worthy.

Good Post Joey.........I agree with the points you make but I still feel it's very noble of David Miliband to just lose one contest and then throw away his Political career and walk off into the Sunset.

when you think of all he has had to fight for to get to the high office he achieved then you have to wonder why the threat of the press having a go at him when he disagrees with his brother, would make him give all this up.

as you say he may come back to frontline UK politics in the future but I fear his time may have come and gone and that he will never again rise to the Ministerial heights he once occupied.

I agree with that, I said earlier that you have to really take your chances in politics as soon as they come along and he gambled all on the leadership and narrowly lost.

I think he was nobl,e in that maybe, had it been any other leader elected other than his Brother then he may have felt it a good thing to live to fight another day.
Once Ed was elected,I think that thought left him quickly.

He was for me however a good Foreign Secretary,it is sad that he walked off from politics, still in my view anyway, having a lot of good to contribute to politics.
