Howmanheyman 33229 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I've seen a quote by both Milliband and one of our City's MP's, (The lass who was in the NUST and on the fans forum sham), who both paid a tribute but felt the need to add a caveat that they 'didn't always agree with him'. He was a successful Union Leader who looked after his members. What the fuck are these two playing at? Grow some fucking balls, man. You're party was funded by unions and you're meant to be supportive. Wen a Labour leaders tribute of a deceased Union man isn't a whole lot different from Boris fucking Johnson then you know that party needs to buck its ideas up.

Howmanheyman 33229 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 It's not about liking or disliking, it's about distancing themselves from something they really shouldn't. When Thatcher pegged it I didn't recall many Tories feeling the need to say they didn't agree with everything she did in their obits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30616 Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'd be even more worried if Labour gave the unions unflinching support without questioning their aims and methods. The easiest thing is always to eulogise about the dead, I'm glad that Miliband has tried to put some distance between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33229 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 It's an unnecessary add on for a Labour leader and a Labour MP to give. A bit gutless denying your roots but I suppose that's the way they're going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33229 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Probably doesn't want to upset any Londoners who might've been a bit pissed off with that union and Crow. I personally think his line of thinking is a bit cowardly and pre-planned especially when another MP says exactly the same as the leader in a typical piece of political arse-licking.
