Labour's Problem

Watching the conferences, and how Mr Clegg, Mr Miliband and Mr Cameron have tried to sweet talk the country into believing them, I see a massive problem for Labour.

Firstly, Mr Miliband himself. To me, and quite a few of you out there, he has no character, charisma or charm.

He's won a handful of PMQ's, which is appalling as he has had many an open goal, and missed, thank god he's not in the England squad!

He doesn't seem to ask the questions that we, the public, want answering, David Cameron always manages to squeeze out of these difficult questions without Labour's front bench even noticing, which quite frankly, is embarrassing to watch!

Secondly, trying to rid themselves of the stigma that New Labour left behind.

Trying to get rid of the past is never an easy task for anyone, however why has Ed kept quite a lot of the old cabinet?

Harriet Harman, Ed Balls, Yvette Cooper, Stephen Twigg, Maria and Angela Eagle, Andy Burnham, the list goes on.

How on earth can you convince the british public, that you've learnt your lesson on spending, you want a fresh view on policies, and ideas?

To me, the Shadow cabinet looks old, used and disgarded, which is a shame because I am sure there are Labour MP's who actually might know what they are talking about.

If you have read my blogs before, you will gather I am not a Labour supporter, however there are a few MPs I do have a soft spot for. Stephen Rotherham for one, is a proud scouser, and proud of Liverpool, and it's nice to see an MP who actually fights for his constituency.

Dennis Skinner, although I think he talks a lot of crap, he is passionate for the Labour Party, and wants the best for not only his constituency, but the country as a whole, whether I agree with him or not is a different matter. I'm acutally quite sad he's retiring, he always puts on a show when he asks a question.

Last but not least, policies, where are the Labour Party's policies?

I haven't heard one yet, only about One Nation.

Well how will they set about getting 'One Nation'? What will they put in place, and how quickly, who will benefit?

Havent got a clue as they haven't got the policies, and two years into the role, surely Mr Miliband and his 'crew' have got some by now? No? Better crack on then!
