It has been some time since the General Election and the subsequent resignation of former prime minister Gordon Brown. The labour party however is once again preparing a leadership campaign where the people have no input on whom should be the leader and a potential future prime minister.
Lord Mandelson has critisized the young Miliband stating that he is likely to take Labour back to the dark ages. I am unsure if that’s a complement or insult coming from him. Ed Miliband however has made a comment which I can completely agree with: Mandelson should retire.
Leaderships should have the confidence of the people they purport to represent. If we have no control over our political leaders and worse prime minister then how can we presume to have a government worthy of our faith? Labour will with hope fall into the darkness, and at the next General Election with any hope, the Liberal Democrats will come out victorious.
