Quite embarrassing for Dave Cameron today as the Shadow Cabinet re-shuffle has taken over the Cabinet re-shuffle (that or it's a blessing in disguise)
Ed Miliband has obviously taken a large lurch to the left, sacking off the remaining 'New' Labour ministers.
Stephen Twigg, Liam Byrne, and Jim Murphy. All strong supporters of 'New' Labour, and Tony Blair.
Now to me this looks like a nice lurch to the left, but to some, like Owen Jones:
@OwenJones84 Bonfire of the Blairites? Tories - bear in mind 'Labour shifts left' narrative won't wash with voters who care about issues, not left/right
Now I do agree with what Owen is saying, but all his dreams must be coming true right now, getting rid of the Blairites, sticking with Brownites, (although not sure he is in favor of that), and making sure Unite The Union Leader, Len McCluskey (who told Miliband to sack these individuals) is a happy man.
Maybe Ed has done this as a peace offering over wanting to 'reform' their dealings with the Trade Unions.
To me it just looks like the same old Labour Party doing the same old schmoozing; Tony Blair wanted to make Gorge Bush happy, Ed Miliband wants to make Len McCluskey happy.
Either way, neither are actually interested in the opinions of the voters, just that of the money and power!
