That's not what I want in a Prime Minister or even an Opposition Leader!
I want someone who will pat me on the head and say 'There, there, Gordon, don't worry, everything will turn out all right'.
I want a Leader who, although sometimes right,sometimes wrong, will give me the confidence that they are able to LEAD!

Thats the real problem Labour have got to me Gordon, Not EdM, THe problem is the public perception,following the balls up made by Blair n Brown! until they admit that,fer my money,they will never regain credibility,no matter who leads the party.
