    Why do you doubt he will ever become PM?
    Anything wrong with his policies? Or himself as a person?

  • While I don't doubt the power and influence of Fleet Street. Surely declining readership and new "democratised" media and comms outlets mean they don't have to have the same influence on voters if the Labour Party got it's shit together? So I don't think you can lay all the blame at the right-wing media's door.

    Look at how close the Scottish referendum was.

    Labour MPs don't want him and won't let him succeed. It's indicative of how the Labour party work that Ed introduced a democratic system to incorage voters to help guide the party and those at the top are now trying to sabotage it because they're not getting the answer they want.

    If you look at how they have run successive cabinets it has always been a dictatorial style. That's just how they roll as a party.

  • And the Guardian. They're laying into him pretty heavily but more insidiously
