WHEN Ed Miliband was elected as leader of the Labour Party my initial reaction was anyone but David, and I thought he should be given a chance.
As it is he’s proving to be a disaster. Only someone, who by his own admission, does not read British newspapers would have allowed himself, as a Labour politician, to be photographed holding a promotional copy of The Sun newspaper.
For goodness sake, there really is no excuse for such an ignorant act.
Postmen in the West of England, and especially in Merseyside, have been refusing to deliver the rag while the Hillsborough inquest has been reopened and is currently proceeding.
He really should resign; he’s an embarrassment to himself, to the Labour Party and to national politics.
