Kinnock, what a prick.

"We're ALRIGHT!"

Was there ever a worse judged speech from a politician ?

(probably yes, but I can't think of any)

[sail1948]

What a fucking fuckwit.

Way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory Neil.. you plonker.

I hope Ed Miliband does this...then we would be spared of Labour screwing it up again!

[DG6985]

Trying a bit too hard for a political speech.

...as if that ginger champagne socialist was ever going to be Prime Minister.

[Bedzy lfc]

He would have won that election but for this !

If you were going to design from scratch an identikit politician with the widest possible appeal, three words that wouldn't appear on your clipboard are: WELSH, BALDING, GINGER.

I squirm each time I see him. Falling over onthe beach; trying to get Bill Owen and Clive Dunne, Labour supporters, to prance around doing 'Singing in the Rain', during a wet election campaign. They looked too embarrassed for words;embracing/kissing Winne Mandela (she of the famous football team) at a Wembley pop concert. (He'd never met her before); 'We're alright' in Sheffield; how about when he reckoned he knocked 'shit' out someone or other. What a style-less object. And now he's a Lord

They went to all that trouble: Brass band, video screens, helicopter, choir, impassioned speeches... And then the ginger twat gets on stage.

To cheer me up after the sad news of Margaret Thatcher's death I watched this........... you only have to watch this stupid hypocritical windbag.....and then know the result to be reassured.
