Finally some in the labour party have recognized the plight of their members, but will Ed care?

[naomi24]

Got to ask why this sudden concern? Could it be something to do with the EU election results? Had they been different, I wonder if the letter would have been written at all?

[Spannerfiend]

In a word. NO. He's too spineless.

[grumpy01]

Looking at the constituencies of these MP's they are in area's where migration from Europe has almost certainly been at a higher level.Therefore why should they not speak out on behalf of their constituents.Hopefully but very doubtfully Mr. Milliband will have a rethink or perhaps he have to seek permission from Len McCluskey.

[youngmafbog]

I agree grumpy, they most certainly should speak out.

I very much Milliband will speak out for anything that rocks the EU gravy boat though.

[Gromit]

I suspect Miliband listens to his party's strategists and spin doctors rather than his own MPs.

Give it a couple of weeks and we might get some wishy washy half arsed whimper on the subject. It will be delivered in a serious and forthright tone which every viewer will be able to detect is not genuine.
