Has everybody else seen this....

He acts a bit oddly in the vid, repeating what he's said 4 or 5 times!! Like some crazy broken robot android cyborg man!

Personally, I think it's a masterstroke! He's truly an MP for the Teletubbie generation!! Again, again!!!

    I actually quite enjoyed that.

    Very surreal :D

    Extremely odd!

    And I still think he has a mouth that belongs in a Wallace & Gromit animation :-)

    When I saw the thread title, I thought it was going to be about something like Janet's wardrobe malfuction where some tit accidentally popped out into public view, but instead it was Ed Milliband on the BBC. On second thoughts, same thing.

    Hahaha... that is well weird! It's like a mock up that someone's made from soundbites. Bizarre!

    Anyway, I reckon we should put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again...

    I know the Labour party are broke but you would think they could afford a longer tape loop.

    Parents up and down the country are reckless and provacative..it's wrong especially whilst these strikes are still going on. I think both sides are happening again.....

    An interview Sarah Palin gave before the '08 election had something similar going on, but this is on a different level.

    Quite simply, the most embarrassing interview I have ever seen involving any politician, and without question he is finished as leader of the Labour Party.

    I'm guessing his PR people told him to say that, but to also pad it out a bit.

    But I'm thinking whilst he was working on padding it out Tarquin and Lord Ponsenby Smythe came around to his studio apartment and demanded that he downeth the tools and partake in some serious drinkage of yon shampgnee down at the local gents club.

    The following non revision of speech with padding resulted in the same speech being carefully reworded 427 times.

    Unfortunately it didn't work.

    I love how both Milliband and Cameron feel able to qualified to talk about work, workers and whether they should strike or not when neither of them have actually done what you or I would call work in their lives.

    You might not call it work but i think it is. Not saying its the most difficult job in the world but its not like theyre sat in their mansions counting their money day in day out.

    Spend years at a low level, knocking on peoples doors trying to get votes and then work their way up. They werent given the job due to having a rich dad (Like some people whos dad own a company) and worked their way up.

    Plus any of us could go for it if we wanted to and become a local councillor and work our way up if we wanted to. I'm not a huge fan of politicians but its not like they have sat on their behinds all their career doing nothing.

    I agree. And I also believe we should put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again, because the government has operated in a provocative and reckless manner.

    Cameron and the Milibot have both had help up the greasy pole. When Cameron wanted to get involved with the Tories, the interview panel had a call from someone at Buckingham Palace telling them what a splendid chap he was. Both Milibands benefitted from their Marxist father's connections within Labour. The millions the avowed communist managed to amass would have helped too.

    Even so, we should put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again, because the government has operated in a provocative and reckless manner.

    What you're saying is not relevant. Why can't you just put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again, because the government has operated in a provocative and reckless manner.

    But that's he was saying, and I quote "if we can put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again, because the government has operated in a provocative and reckless manner."

    I've worked closely with several MPs over a big issue in my area over the past year. Most are a waste of space.

    George Osborne is the UK's worst tax dodger so I expect he does spent a lot of time 'counting his money' or ways of avoiding paying tax on it.

    David Cameron's first job was secured for him by his father. Cameron was born privileged and has led a privileged life ever since. He believes that not only are you entitled to have less than he does, you are entitled to have less than you do.

    Thats a good point well made however, if we can put aside the rhetoric, get around the negotiating table and stop it happening again, because the government has operated in a provocative and reckless manner.
