When life is getting you down, or if you are just having a slow day in the office, there are few geeky political pleasures as sweet as listening to Ed Miliband being systematically destroyed by BBC Radio 4 listeners on a recent phone-in show:
I think my favourite is the one where the guy pretty much flat-out states that Ed Miliband is incompetent, and says in a voice dripping with pity “I don’t mean to be cruel, but it’s such an important job that you are doing, and I don’t think you can do it”, and Ed responds “we obviously have a difference of view about that”.
Does anyone actually believe that Ed Miliband will lead the Labour party to victory in the next election?
