Miliband has already declared war on the Unions, going as far as reporting a Union to the Police, only to admit later that there was no wrong-doing in Falkirk.
Now he's declared war on the energy companies.
What next?

Perhaps now people can see exactly why I've been banging on about energy and environmental issues for so long. It is the most important issue we face as a country. The most important issue.
Now the whole fiasco is unfolding and the blame can be firmly placed at the door of politicians who having been conned by faux scientists and green lobbyists into believing that the world is set to explode because of global warming.
They have all been conned by the green cult and we as a nation will be paying the price for generations unless there is a complete U-turn in thinking which starts with the repeal of the climate change act.
Wind farms, solar panel farms, decarbonisation of our energy and manufacturing sector, regulations which affect every single aspect of our lives related to the climate cult will end up bankrupting the country.
Funny how those who think like me used to called called flat earthers by those gullible enough to fall for the climate lies but our views are now mainstream thinking by those with a semblance of common sense.
Having said that don't expect things to be any better under the tories - their just as bad if not worse than labour and the liberals in their infantile views on the subject.

Ed Milliband is giving the appearance of a public fortune teller, he need only add ... cha cha cha to the end of each phrase.

No Peter - not a waste of time at all. They are actually great fun to attend. As for the wider world, they have their uses as, in this case, it helps expose Milliminor as a fool wanting to return to the failed old policies of the past and unfit to govern.

Theme parks are fun, Barry. Party conferences may be of value to the delegates but to the general public they are just a vehicle for politicians - a discredited bunch with few genuine exceptions - to strut and preen in front of an adoring and uncritical audience, telling them just what they want to hear.

I agree with Peter and Barry has just confirmed my long time opinion that conferences (of any kind) are just another nice little jolly for those who go.

The Labour Party Conference lost a little something when the word 'plebiscite' got its redundancy notice, to be replaced with 'focus-group'.
Now they have all followed in Walt Disney's footsteps and made every day their 'mascots' birthday, and if it was not for the colour of the icing, and their respective easy-blow candles, none would know that there were different hands on the slicing knife.
Assured of pretty much blanket publicity;good/bad, intended/unintended, the leaders seem to struggle and strive for that extra something, like a drowning man gasping his last in a straw-strewn pond.
Whether or not the latest wheeze, temporary energy price control, lasts the course it does serve to give voice to a widely held public concern, and may yet be useful in reminding the Electorate of that other recent rhetorical twist that all Governments are powerless.
Still, the headline act is ever last to tread the stage. As one Party of Government has shot their bolt to so little approval we wait to see what the other Party of Government has up its sleeve.
For, no matter how the mess we are in is perceived, it was certainly in large part, of their own devising. What now can be thought appropriate that neither one could be bother to do at an earlier juncture?

the reds were out in force this morning buoyed by one nation ed's conference speech and the energy deal has hit a chord with the voters.
as always long standing and popular ex m.p. gwyn prosser was on hand to field questions from the public .

a bigger worry might be how they respond on the energy price issue, the reds have stolen a march on this one.

I did my own price fixing deal with my energy supplier a few years ago and there are at least two that you can do it with at present.

all dave needs to do is get in touch with clair and she will get her calculator out and find a tariff that saves him a few bob on the spot.
