I would take my chances with Ed Miliband every time over your guy

For one thing we wouldn’t be in line to leave the EU but then again you never seem to blame Cameron for that funnily enough
What I said was *ignoring the policies* (I asterisked it at the time), Cameron was well suited to the role. He was a good front of house performer for the Tories, winning in 2015 when the Tories should have lost badly after years of austerity. This is nothing to do with left v right. Miliband managed to lose an election he should have won easily, and which it becomes increasingly clear was the crucial one.

It won't avail you if you are right on ths substance, as Labour was in 2015, if you're fronted by a candidate for PM who is obviously not trusted to fufill the role. Miliband's own tragedy was that he didn't see his own limitations. Just like Brown in that regard. The soft left seems to be full of characters like that,

See

https://spinninghugo.wordpress.com/2016 ... referendum" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

NB that you don't like the result (and I don't) isn't an argument against the referendum. So, just as you need to be able to distinguish substantive policies and technical proficiency as a political performer (a distinction that eludes you), you'll also need to be able to distinguish between procedural fairness and the substantive outcome.

I doubt you can do that either.
You seem to admire different capabilities than I do

Being able to lie, avoid questions and various other charlatan behaviour is what you admire. Fair enough but excuse me if I accept human frailties and honesty above that

Cameron was one of the most despicable politicians I have ever encountered and my view of him stays very negative

That you admire the values of Cameron above those of Miliband is clear and I will allow others to judge

On my own personal capabilities. I have certain but not infallible and i know that. I like most posters on here for making interesting and relevant points that challenge my, often flawed, opinion

I will leave others to judge but your opinion is the least important as I have no respect for either you character or, alleged by you, intellect

I say again Ed Miliband would have made a more effective PM than Cameron. Cameron may have acted that part but his actual performance can be seen in the current situation

If I knew he was looking,I would simply say "presentational" isn't an objective view and ridiculous to ascribe such singularity as to effects or extent of before you get to the strenuous efforts to skew and make the "truth".Disregarding politics I found Cameron a swarmy performer who came across as totally disingenuous with a tendency to go into a tantrum on the least threat of being exposed,but there you go.

So James Soderholm, the professor who tried to bring Milo to Simon Langton, and who's now behind the UNSAFE space stunt, has written for Breitbart: http://www.breitbart.com/milo/2016/12/0 ... ar-school/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ….
What a surprise...he's also associated with University of Kent as is Joanna Williams, Furedi and a few others.

Luckily for me I have a BT Internet email address so can watch for the first time in years...and so can my son down in Cardiff.

Who needs Sky eh?
