The other Miliband brother - Ed ?

Just happened to have the Radio on this morning when Ed gave his speech to the Labour Party and TBH he sounded really good and it sounded very very good.

Don't know who wrote it but it sounded brilliant just one snag I remebered what my Old Man used to say when he was alive.

Son if it sounds too good to be true then it probably isn't true !

I know I have become sceptical with age and experience not to mention the MP's expenses scandal but about an hour later I came to the conclusion that I did not believe a word of what he said despite all the American Style Hearts & Honesty stuff.

you cannot believe what any of them say ever, and people seem to have in general short memories, I am no better except when it is to do with something that I am involved in, for instance when Steel was an MP in the 70's and there was the anti lorry campaign, he openly advocated and encouraged people to disable articulated trucks by disconnecting the "suzies" brake airline pipes, now what sensible person could go with that, so he is a complete no no in my book, Rick
