The Milliband show

Most of the people I have spoken to this morning watched the debate on Question Time last night. The event was more like the Milliband show with David M looking like the clear winner to those who are not members of the Labour party. The remarks that registered in my brain (apparently I have one..) were about David looking like a real Leader, determined, assertive and with a lot of clear messages. Ed didn't do that bad but in a world dominated by PR and quick real time communications David looks better and will attract Sid Vicious and Doris Banana ( terms used by the great Chairman Jon of the Rogers) so if the Labour party is serious about winning the next election, and I very much hope that we are, then we have to produce a Leader that does not just appeal to the mainstream Trade Union activists.
