Labour Relaunch

14 November 2014
The Independent seems unimpressed at the steps attempt to restore the political fortunes of the Labour leader, Ed Miliband.

Now I agree with the newspaper's assessment although not out of any personal malice, I just think that it's a bit silly for Ed to keep banging on about the evils of capitalism when both he and his family have done so well out of free market economics over the past 50 or 60 years.

Unless I've got the wrong end of the stick, Ed is a property millionaire in London, yet Labour's policies keep emphasising the need to protect the 'squeezed middle' which must included millions of mortgage payers who have enjoyed a huge financial windfall over the past 6 years due the the UK's artificially low interest rates.

Whereas fellow citizens paying rent have seen their housing costs continue to rise steadily throughout the same period.
