Is Ed Scraping The Barrel?

[naomi24]

Miliband visits Russell Brand 'for interview'.

Any port in a storm I suppose - although why Ed's hobnobbing with an idiot who champions revolution and encourages people not to vote at all is anyone's guess. Very strange.

Gawd help us if Milligeon get's in! I cannot beleive anyone would support this anti Britsh backstabing self serving lefty let alone his puppetteer!

I seem to recall a mention in one of today's papers that Brand had tweeted...(Is that the right word?)...something along the lines of, "Don't be jealous, Dave, I'll probably see you at a West Ham match soon."
Quite an amusing comment, I thought, given that man-of-the people-Dave seems to have no idea which football team he allegedly supports!

Since I see nothing to recommend the mindless football culture, I find that quite refreshing.

//..If Ed can get Brand interested in Labour's policies & influence young people to vote Labour ..//

whiskeryron has it right
In case people haven't realised , this is a race and the winner's prize is number 10 .

Providing nothing underhand or immoral is being done , i can't see what the hoo ha is all about .

Nobody remembers the silver medalist .

i must say that i find it somewhat patronising , when some on here consider those who dont agree with their political views or dont support their party of choice , somehow to be ' fools '

[Quizmonster]

Brand's joke had nothing to do with mindlessness, but rather memorylessness!

[ToraToraTora]

"Nobody remembers the silver medalist " - oh yes they do, remember Kinnochio 1992, held the victory party the day before the election! doh!

[naomi24]

Baz, dyed in the wool Labour voters revel in the past glories of old Labour, forgetting that it no longer exists. They are succumbing to the same sort of hoodwinking techniques that Tony Blair employed. He was allegedly a man of the people too – but turned out to be a self-serving liar.

[retrocop]

Red Ed would deal with the devil himself to get into No 10 and the rest of us go to hell in a handcart as a result.

[auntie-bertie]

Quite simple, because Miliband is an idiot and some tree hugging leftie at The Guardian probably told him this is a good way to connect with the yoof....
