I should add for fareness, that Milliband, now moved sideways was actually effective, even if the messages were not ones that Labour Central wanted to have heard. But he did work in relative isolation and some joined up thinking from rest of the party might have been beneficial. Labour just do not think BIG.

“Ministers reaffirm their support for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and express the need to work towards the fulfilment of the international commitments contained in the Paris Agreement, underlining in particular the urgency of increasing global efforts to limit the increase in temperature to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.” #Milliband

People who have seen the odd post might infer I am no fan of Labour, but while we are stuck in the UK, they could have done a lot worse than Milliband and probably not much better given the paucity of talent. (How is that for a snarky endorsement :-)
I do hope his replacement has the same intentions, but I doubt it.

Is Milliband the best candidate here?
On Starmer's exit, unifying strongly around the greatest change message to voters would be powerful.
Start a draft Milliband group?

@pedestrians1st this is a #Labour government in name only. All the cabinet, with the possible exception of #Milliband, are Tories.

Today’s evidence that #Starmer and #Milliband are just #Tory lite…caving immediately to the house building lobby on putting #solar pv panels on new builds.
They’ve crafted a weasel word defence literally fed to them by lobbyists around shade and unsuitable roofs. It’s just a gaping loophole, which will be exploited for all its worth…while residents pay the price.

Corbyn was never going to win - in any political climate at all - let alone after that 2016 #brexit disaster
There was a very good reason why Jeremy never ever served in any cabinet or shadow cabinet position prior to the #milliband invitation for every Tory, anarchist & SWP type to saddle Labour with a useless leader in 2015 despite being an MP for the 32 years beforehand
And that reason was not just because he is too left wing!

Well I am hopeful the party wont ever again be as careless as #Milliband was, allowing entryists* a vote for his replacement. I do not think that was deliberate, simply a failure to think thru consequences
* both far left SWP types & right-wing mischief making Tories (& worse) - 100,000s of votes by unknown people
Corbyn is not evil - simply unsuitable as a leader of anything. With a deaf ear when it comes to anti-semitism.

Tell me - who did you vote for up until 2010?
Life really is too short to get "beyond angry" -
"Resignation" was what I felt 2011 - 2020 whilst first #Milliband then #Corbyn stuffed it up by forgetting that the first duty of the LOTO is to get the party elected to power - enabling the most #rightPopulist BS govt of my lifetime to get away with murder by their incompetence
I recommend it over incoherent anger

he's just one guy - you think he can get away with murder when the entire shadow cabinet are looking on?
Or do you also have a problem with #nandy #reeves #cooper #milliband & the rest?

Well I would far rather have had #Corbyn as PM than the #vacuumOfIntegrity we got - it was a shame that both #2017GE and #2019GE were lost
Personally I rarely post about the former leader - why would I? I do not post about #milliband or #brown either - and the latter was actually PM & did things
But I do post in response to those dissing #labour whether from the left or right - I want the #toriesOut
-
Well there may be some truth - all I know is that whenever #labour tries to go left and appoints a leader from the #left it loses. #Wilson, #Blair won elections (3 each) #foot, #kinnock, #milliband and #corbyn lost them.
So I am unconvinced it is purely a personal reaction - more likely the red-tops poison the water for such leaders in reaction to their policies.
I am sick of #labour losing.

Well that is not what polls say - and no #labour leader - not #foot, #kinnock, #milliband or #corbyn - has won from the #left of #labour since 1945 when there are a world war on and returning troops yearned for a new jerusalem
#wilson and #blair are the model for winning power, not #benn
(not a phrase that works in the current era when Palestine is ablaze....but it was the one used then)
