  There are also plenty of Tories of which only their mothers could be proud. Arthur Balfour, Stanley Baldwin, Anthony Eden, to name but three off the top of my head. Balfour's famous declaration was the main source of the Middle East problem, Baldwin's miscalculations failed to avert the General strike and made the Depression worse than necessary and Eden's intervention in Suez compounded Balfour's sins. Apart from Brown, Balls and Kinnock, Labour have much less to be ashamed of, not least because they achieved much less. And the Liberals have been spectators since the first world war.
