Ed Balls on Panorama tonight, What a tt!

He started well, suggesting UK business should focus more on selling to BRIC than EU.

'bloody hell' I thought, Ed is talking sense!

He then could not help himself and made a quite ludicrous analogy to the coalition's cuts to public sector spending; that of a doctor continually cutting a patient, too far, too deep, despite the bleeding.

How could anyone ever vote for Labour again?

ed balls was the minister for education for a long long time.


this is perhaps the real reason that the teachers are unhappy and striking.

He has a lot to answer for that creature, wish he would slither back under whatever rock he emerged from.

Balls is the tories best weapon against Labour. He's a lying idiot and everyone knows it.

I wish labour would explain how not cutting the public sector will help the private sector sell to bric countries instead of likening it to cutting a person.

Lot of mistakes and bias in this program, watching it on iPhone iplayer just came out I think.
