Daniel Boffey who wrote something that was proven to be a complete lie last weekend *wracks brain trying but failing to remember what it was but remembers very clearly that he didn't respond to my tweet notifying him nor did he amend his article*

Was it the Lamont "not being allowed to.talk about the bedroom tax" article,well.after it was officially policy to get rid of it ?

My tweet of a few mins ago that if my party force EM to resign then I pledge to cut up my card & never vote Labour again is receiving a lot of attention.

I sense another Twitter storm coming again soon

Tristram Hunt named in Mail

Yes, but what is the actual "story"?

No comments allowed on Boffey's piece.

In which he said "Alan Johnson appeared to rule himself out".

He did rule himself out.

I have. He is ignoring me now, knows how daft he looks.

He replied to me- a fair reply. He's reading out the odds.

Amidst the media storm around Miliband’s leadership, Alan Johnson – who in recent months has reportedly been called upon by some within the party to make a leadership bid – has once again ruled out the possibility of him challenging Miliband.

Alan Johnson:
“For the avoidance of any doubt, I have no intention of going back to frontline politics, I support Ed Miliband, I’m a candidate at the next general election, so I’ve got an interest in it and I think it’s eminently winnable."

NOVEMBER 8, 2014 9:48 AM

The following horseshit is time dated below:

Ed Miliband in new crisis as senior Labour MPs back a leadership change

Twenty shadow ministers say they are willing to call for him to stand down, if Alan Johnson is willing to step into the breach

That poll you pulled MS up on is from yougov & I happen to know something very interesting about it that should cast doubt about polling in all our eyes.

As you all know, I read & post on UKPR. Yesterday a poster linked to a yougov poll which he said be quick because he suspected it shouldn't have been put onto the site.

Being a most sod, I looked & it was the poll MS is tweeting about. Lots of questions about alternative Leaders, do you know such & such an MP, would you recognise them etc etc.

The interesting thing though is that the fieldwork for the poll was dated 6 - 7 Nov.

The results were put up on the morning of the 7th so how can they have been polled on the 7th ??

Anthony Wells won't answer the question & modded all reference to it - odd eh ?

Ah, sorry, I should have known you all were on it. I'm shaking I'm so angry. This isn't fair play, this isn't democracy, this is intentional lying slander & it's dishonourable, disgraceful.

Yes, I agree.

A new Survation poll puts Labour ahead by 34-29, apparently.

@joeyjonessky This is nonsense. As I said on Friday, Ed is right man to lead Labour & country. He has set the terms of UK political debate.

I think they are probably slightly misquoting him, and taking him out of context.

Ah sorry Citizen - total snap occurred there.

But at least he's come out quickly to deny it, eh.

Could someone please explain to me what the hell is going on? Because I don't understand that Dr Eoin Clarke Twitter thing.

Got it thank you. I'm better now.

Listening to him Friday there's no more supportive of Miliband he could've been. Media sure like to whip themselves into a state. Labour need to stand firm, it's the policies people are interested in, not this crap.

The Mail have TH stabbing Ed in the back as one of the shadow cabinet who have been speaking out against him

Seems to have criticized presentation of putting Ed forward all the time as having not worked, in the bit I saw.

Indeed if you read it you can see it is a selective quote from a longer piece......if Miliband wins - get rid of the BBC and bring in full Leveson....ban foreign residents from owning British media outlets etc

Oh, I think his biases come through, but I think he's basically all right. And I feel sorry for him being stuck with all those morons on his blog.

@KarlTurnerMP: @TristramHuntMP TH says MoS story is total nonsense I say it's complete bollocks! #webackEd

Claire Spencer @thedancingflea · 23m 23 minutes ago
If we get rid of Ed, we don't deserve to be in government. Talking to ourselves now is utterly unforgivable.

Someone who clearly gets it.

I'm a Labour party member & supporter & look forward to Ed Miliband forming a majority government in the UK in May 2015 at the latest.

Loved it. Was tempted to add another reply, but felt sorry for him.

Had Press Preview on pause & now catching up.

Tristram Hunt has tweeted Sky News which the presenter quoted live on air:

Well, Hunt showe a spiky streak with Cameron the other day.

Needs to do so again.

I think he's been OK in his job too.

He has his moments. He was pretty good, in the main, on last weeks QT as well; quite worrying that so many were prepared to think the worst of him tonight, on no evidence. Still think he'd be better at Communities (regionalisation is very much his thing), but who then to slot into Education?

And he's just attracted the unlikeliest of supporters on Twitter, not sure how to take this comment.

Eoin probably deleted his tweet after Tristram Hunt reacted to the lie as told in the Mail

Ha, ha, I quite like Lord Ashcroft.

Think Education is OK for Hunt. Got oversight and school places in his sites, main issues. Good on other bits like professional development.

Seen the tweets replying to Hunt ? So many so-called Labour members believing the Mail over Hunt.

Ashcroft is attempting a neat line in humour after some right winger said the other day that they should support Ed into the GE because he was the Cons best chance of winning.

Well, what would Bevan say?

R&S looking poor for the Conservatives even though they've thrown the kitchen sink at it, BBC news 24 appeared slightly sceptical of Osborne's smoke and mirrors and it's Miliband that's in trouble. Again.

I dont think a Twitter campaign to save Ed is a positive sign but maybe its just me.

Somehow she just exemplifies everything about this bored and boring game being played out by the journo luvvies and their paymasters.

Just look at the state of her.

How stupid is @suzanne_moore ( to use the vernacular).

The whole point of Twitter is it allows instant rebuttal. So Hunt wasn't so much tweeting to support Ed, but to tell the media that the MoS story was bollocks.

@RR2

Of course it's no win.If ignored-nobody is supporting Ed.If responded to in anyway-terrible because they had to.

@pk1

Seen the tweets replying to Hunt ? So many so-called Labour members believing the Mail over Hunt.

Isn't it awful? So we're reading these posts from people I wonder if they're really interesting in supporting a Labour government. Fine, if people don't support Labour, out with it. "Concern troll" crap is a nasty game.
