    That's this years sound bite though, next year it'll be a new one.

    Will he be able to remember a new sound bite though? He's said it so many times now, he must be on autopilot.

    He's heavily briefed and rehearsed by his spin doctors, so it shouldn't be a problem.

    Perhaps we should have a poll to predict his next one?

    Please, please , please can we have a Dirty Election?

    I don't wan't a Newspaper Editor to ask "What is wrong with Ed Milibands face?"

    I want a Newspaper Editor to tell us exactly what it is that is bothering him about the facial features of the Miliband family. If he could do that maybe.......January 2015 - that would be awesome.

    He came to Llanelli sat outside the Bistro just down the road from here.
    Did the normal Meet and Greet. During that he met a man who complained about ESA.
    the next day Miliband was making a speech and Dr Miliband Decided to inform the audience how in his opinion this man was capable of doing some work. That is when I quit the labour party. I thought to myself I bet he sat there listening to that guy deeply worried
    but didn't have the balls to tell him face to face what he told that Audience.

    the guy has no personality no charisma and cant hide the fact he gets bored easily

    All political party leaders apart from nigel farage have minus ratings oathy according to opinion polls, none are that likeable to be honest or have policies that stand out. Gone are the days of a good leader. :eek:

    Sound bites is it? you want sound bites? here's a few,
    "we support those who work hard" (by freezing their in work benefits and fining them for spare room crime)
    "genuine cases have nothing to fear" (except it turns out they had everything to fear)
    "because of the mess we inherited from the previous government" I DO hope Ed gets at least 4 years worth out of that one,
    "we are all in it together" oh stop, my ribs are hurting,
    "we support the workers not the shirkers" (see the first one)

    anyone is free to add more, I still have a couple of hours work to do,

    Who knows, it'll be some bland generic nonsense as per usual.

    Or maybe the more direct approach. He'll just say 'vote for me' in every sentence.

    I thought Cameron spending the whole of PMQs standing sideways when he was talking about the mystery buyers and sellers of Royal mail shares was really weird.

    Could the speaker not have said " I can assure the Prime Minister that he Is Finished, and by the way, avoiding eye contact during PMQs looks a bit shifty......"

    They said on The Daily Politics a while back that not looking at the opposition front bench was a strategy to avoid getting too wound up by Ed Balls daft gesticulations.

    Cameron turns to face the Speaker whom he is addressing.

    Between red Ed and dead Ed, if this nation is unlucky enough to have a socialist labour government in 2015, this country will revert back to the dismal periods of Blair and Brown, and the future of our country will be determined by the unions.
    I live in a constituency, which is not even marginal. If, like me, you are a staunch conservative voter, you are betraying your heritage, you want to be something you are not, better than you are. (what is wrong with wanting a better life?). It is a case of my dad voted labour, his dad voted labour, I've got to vote labour. So if Miliband the younger turned up here, I am sure he would receive a warm welcome by that sector of the community. Even labour voters don't think he is the right guy to be party leader or, unthinkably, PM. So, no, I wouldn't turn out to see him. Or any other 'comrade'.

    Well they do say the camera never lies, and the people in these photo's all looked happy enough with Ed when he was doing his walkabout in Gloucester, so if I was Ed I wouldn't worry about one woman, especially has (as for we know) she could be a set up by Guido Fawkes. ;-)

    If I had to face the opposition front bench week in week out, I would also try and avoid looking at them.
