I see the Suns attacking him on their front page today for 'refusing to support' the Help for Heroes charity.

When actually, all he's refused to do is a photo spread for The Sun again - probably to appease the Scousers!

I think, deep down, beneath the teeth, the silly voice and the general gormlessness, there is a good guy in Ed Milliband. I think in his heart of hearts he would like to return Labour to being a left-wing party but he doesn't possess the guile or strength of personality to do it.

Men like Wilson, Callaghan and Foot were all political giants compared to Milliband and they found leading Labour a challenging (albeit they were active in a very different era).

I wouldn't support Help for Heroes either to be fair. The charity shouldn't exist in the first place as in my opinion, if a government is prepared to send soldiers to war, it should be prepared to rehabilitate them when they come home injured.

Aye, fair point, and I agree.

Point was, I don't think it was the charity that Millybland was snubbing

Chukka Umunna will be the next Labour leader, probably around next August after the Tories/UKip form the next govt in England.

Definitely a front runner but he didn't cover himself in glory with our referendum. Start about 5:08
