It's funny you should use the exact same phrase union stooge as if prompted by Sky. Sky's message is designed to inform soft-minded sheeple.

Hmm, yes I guess people such as yourself get your info from the biased tv channels, but I like to rely on my own intellect and ability to sort fact from fiction, and surprisingly enough "union stooge"(one who allows himself to be used for another's profit or advantage), is the first phrase that sprung to my mind when I heard Ed Miliband had been elected. Probably a slightly politer version of "union bitch". I have followed this idiot's involvement with the unelected Brown's policies for some time and have drawn my own conclusions. If Sky have called him a "union stooge" I can only applaud how astute their commentator is! Seems great minds think alike. I think anyone who still supports Labour these days are the sheep, because they do so in the face of overwhelming evidence of the contempt in which the working class are held by the Labour Party, who had 13 years in power during which their failure was abysmal. Fortunately, they can no longer do any further damage, which must be frustrating for the union dinosaurs who have no teeth until and if their STOOGE ever gets the opportunity to wield any power, which is likely to be NEVER.

Brother David Milliband
has returned to London. Expected to leave the party soon.
He had a spat with Harriet Harmen
telling her she voted for the Iraq War,
why was she clapping her brother etc.

Lol, that was hilarious to watch. I also loved the look on Alistair Darling's face when Ed "praised" him for seeing us through the recession as chancellor.

I wouldn't trust Ed Miliband as far as I could throw him - he has shown us that he has no loyalty and no ethics - no doubt all the reasons why he was chosen by the morally bankrupt Labour Party as their new leader. They never learn do they?

The party members should have been allowed to nominate the five candidates. John McDonnell was my personal choice (not that I had any intention of joining the party with David the favourite). Instead the decisions were all but left up to Labour MP's and boy has it backfired for them.

David Milliband has confirmed
he is not in the shadow cabinet,
he will be a shadow back bencher

Well I hope his brother Ed thinks it was all worthwhile, alienating his own brother and betraying him in such a fashion, especially since he did not win the election fair and square but had to rely on the Union vote to do it. And not because his policies are so bloody wonderful, but because the Unions see Ed as the most malleable and easy to manipulate of the two.

Ed is the Temp labour leader,
David returns in 5 years after Ed loses.

No matter what anyone thinks of the Coalition, or the Tories or Lib-Dems as individual parties, they are hopefully never going to vote in the Labour Party again, because a vote for Labour is always going to be a vote for the bloody Unions, who hold the purse strings and are the puppet masters. Anyone who thinks the Unions don't hold the balance of power in the Labour Party have now been proved wrong.

To blame the unions for the Uk's economic woes is stupid, and to blame for what they haven't yet done, strike is premature. I see nothing wrong with having a mandate from to unions to lead the Labour Party, yet.

If you need to apportion blame to anyone it should be the banks. They're the ones who sold junk derivatives and bonds.They're the ones who turn on the money tap and create asset bubbles, and turn it off again when it blows up. And they're the ones responsible when it all inevitably blows up as it does.

It the public service is bloated and indebted it is so because it a reflection of the overall ecnomy. In the blame game the unions are the junior party to the banks in this.

Actually, I agree Ed won the leadership contest unfairly. The unions broke the rules on members voting by enclosing promotional leaflets bigging Ed up with the ballot papers. For better or worse, this is a trade union coup for the Labour party.
