Miliband Will Freeze Energy Prices When Hell Freezes Over

 

 

 

Miliband’s proposed energy price freeze was apparently a game changing political moment, one that dramatically caught the headlines….so why does the BBC not report one of his backers claiming that Miliband will not honour his promise?

 

We’ve long been off the opinion that Miliband is as much a windbag as Kinnock ever was…his ‘policies’ being mere populist piffle designed to catch the headlines….and they were very successful at that….the BBC fell head over heels in love with him…Pienaar constantly reminding us that Miliband was ‘setting the agenda’.

We always thought that was so much hot air.

Now it seems that even his own party donors think that as well:

Labour party donor John Mills: Miliband won’t freeze energy bills or break up banks

Ed Miliband’s promises are merely anti-business rhetoric he is unlikely to carry through, says key supporter

Ed Miliband is unlikely to follow through on his threats to break up the major high street banks and cap energy bills, one of the party’s biggest private donors has said.

John Mills, the entrepreneur behind the JML household products range, said the Labour leader is “less sympathetic” towards business than most voters would like but his policies are merely “rhetoric.”

 

 

However, the ever loyal BBC doesn’t even mention this damning claim in their report, they are far more sympathetic and busy making excuses for him:

 

Ed Miliband ‘boxed in’ over economic policies says donor

One of Labour’s biggest individual donors has said there is very little difference between the party and the Conservatives on economic policy.

John Mills, who gave Labour more than £1.5m in shares last year, said the Labour leader Ed Miliband was very “boxed in” over his policy positions.

If Labour stuck with its general economic strategy, the choices between the parties would be “very narrow”.

 

 

So despite 4 years of telling us how different things would be under Labour the BBC is reporting that well, actually, there’s not much to set them apart….you know when you come to vote don’t think that the Tories were the ones who rescued the economy…Labour’s policies will be just the same….you can vote Labour quite safely….the economy is safe in their hands.

 

So much for conviction politics and ‘vive la difference!‘  as Miliband supposedly created a new political landscape.

 

However Miliband insists:

‘There were clear differences between his party’s economic policies and the Tories.

“I took this job on three and half years ago and always knew this was going to be a close election.

“And I relish the fight over the future of country over the next thirteen months and fundamentally I think that is a fight about what you stand up for.’

 

Trouble is not even his own backers back trust him, and don’t ask his brother….shame the BBC doesn’t give you the choice as to whether to do so yourself….they just don’t report the inconvenient truth it seems.

    Despite Beeboids’ unswerving support:-

    “Miliband slumps to 19% support as majority of voters say he is not fit to lead Britain.
    “Less than a fifth of voters see him as a PM in waiting
    Study finds even Labour supporters are not convinced.
    “Figures show he is lagging behind David Cameron in the polls.”

      The wisdom of crowds. Surely despite the BBC’s best efforts, the public have made their minds up about the wonkish plasticine fool.
