100% of bets are for Miliband to replace Brown.
2008-05-26 16:38:00 From William Hill:William Hill are seeing an old fashioned gamble on David Miliband to become the leader of the Labour party and are now 5/2 that he succeeds Gordon Brown. "What started as a trickle has turned into a flood, 100% of wagers accepted on the next leader market have been for David Miliband. The last time we saw a gamble like this on a political leadership market it was for David Cameron and we all know what happened then."Hills are now 6/5 that Gordon Brown will NOT lead the labour party into the next General Election, for which the Conservatives are the 2/7 favourites. Hills have also seen a nibble for the 12/1 on offer that the General Election will be before the end of 2008!Runners and riders odds HERE.

Miliband call for democracy - The cheeky sod.
2008-02-13 20:47:00 I could not believe the today's BBC headline: Miliband urges push for democracy. Surely someone is extracting the urine. How the hell can a man (term used loosely) who is denying the British public a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty dare to even mention the bloody word democracy? His government promised a referendum and the people want a referendum. The only problem for Miliband and his band of self serving mates, is that if the public were to be given a vote, they would in his opinion, vote the wrong way. So his boss Gordon Brown is simply not going to risk it.This is going to be the start of the end of democracy in this country. This Labour government have just confirmed that they can in fact totally ignore the wishes of the people and there's absolutely nothing we can do about it. To add insult to injury, they are set to back Tony Blair's bid to become the EU President - Tony bloody Blair, the same man they forced out of office, the same man they didn't think was ...

I'm tipping David Miliband to oust Gordon Brown by May.
2008-01-19 07:49:00 David Miliband is to give the keynote speech at Today's Fabian Society - Change the World conference. The BBC have obviously had the heads-up on his speech, and what David has to say sounds to me like a man setting out his Prime Ministerial stall. There were rumblings before Christmas that Labour MPs were giving Gordon Brown until May to prove himself fit to win the next election. I don't think he's managed to do that, in fact, I think his image is so tainted with incompetence, he most likely never will.Why did I pick today to make this prediction? Well the main reason is the content and tone of Miliband's speech. I can understand David wanting to talk about our relationship with America and the rest of the world, but why all the talk of Labour needing to show it is excited, not exhausted, by the prospect of a fourth term in government? And why will he point out to the Fabian Society that Labour will need to show it offers more change than the Tories? Many Labour MPs have...

EU Reform Treaty bit embarrassing for Miliband
2007-12-14 08:02:00 Cox thought this clip from the BBC was very amusing - it shows Miliband going on his own to shake the hand of the EU president at the signing of the Constitution Reform Treaty. You can see the president blatantly asking where Brown is hiding why Brown isn't there - Miliband even looks at his watch in a "Brit trying to talk to a foreigner" kind of a way to explain that he's on his way.Barroso, the president, is a well informed man (he has enough civil servants to sink a battle ship) and probably knew exactly where Brown was and why he wasn't there. He knew all the cameras were there, flashing away and recording the moment. It seemed as though he just wanted to stick the knife in.

David Miliband gets a grilling from the European Select Committee.
2007-10-17 12:07:00 David Miliband was at the receiving end of a grilling from the European Select Committee yesterday. In a two hour meeting the committee chairman, Michael Connarty insinuated that Miliband could be compared to Neville Chamberlain saying: "I have visions of peace in our time." Miliband was not impressed and replied that he had been "Cut to my absolute quick."Another committee member James Clappison told Miliband that: "The red lines are in tatters - somewhere along the line someone has been, quite frankly, asleep at the wheel.". Miliband continued to spout his rubbish about being satisfied the EU reform treaty "respects Britain's red lines."Will someone in the government, just for once, tell us the truth about this treaty.Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

David Miliband spins the EU Treaty Referendum.
2007-10-16 14:04:00 I can't believe that David Miliband has got the cheek to say on Radio 4's Today programme that: "everyone accepted" that the EU Treaty and the old Constitution were completely different. It's very true David they are different, but beyond someone rubbing out Constitution and replacing it with Treaty the change is insignificant.David Heathcoat Amory of the European Scrutiny Committee said that with respect to criminal justice: "What we found when we looked at the treaty was that the European Court of Justice will ultimately get jurisdiction over this policy and despite the Red Lines the decisions won't be made by a body in this country, but by judges in Luxembourg."David Miliband and the rest of the cabinet believe that they can say anything to the public and it will be swallowed. They really do have exceedingly low opinion of the people they are working for.I hope they find out soon that they are the stupid ones for thinking that we are.Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

David Miliband, you say it best when you say nothing at all.
2007-09-26 06:59:00 In his speech yesterday, David Miliband referred to Tony Blairs foreign policy saying: "The lesson is that it's not good enough to have good intentions." The gist of little David's speech was to "move on" from Blair's poor foreign policy (the one he and most other labour MPs supported) and implement a "second wave" .Now I would like to tell you what this second wave entails, but seeing as David did not tell the conference, I can't tell you. He reiterated the importance of our relationship with the US, while offering nothing new in the way of policy towards Iraq or Afghanistan.Gordon Brown muddied the waters further by declaring that any future decisions to go to war would have to go before parliament. This is the worst form of spin from Gordon Brown yet! There was a parliamentary vote to go to war with Iraq. In 2003 a motion supporting the use of UK forces in Iraq was passed in parliament by a massive majority of 412 to 149. Gordon's new party are trying to tell us that all of ...

David Miliband Declares He Will Support Gordon Brown as the Next Prime Mini
2007-04-23 09:20:00 David Miliband, Brown's most serious rival, said publicly for the first time that he will support the Chancellor. At a Labour press conference in Glasgow for the Scottish Parliament election campaign, Mr Miliband denied that he was waiting for the results to decide whether to stand. "I'll be voting for Gordon Brown as Labour leader," he said. "He's done fantastic things for the prosperity of all
Miliband Won't Stand Against Brown
2007-04-22 11:31:00 It's suggested that David Miliband will be one of the 44 Labour MPs signing Gordon Brown's nomination papers. Miliband told The Observer: "I have watched him (Gordon Brown) and worked with him for nearly 20 years. He has in the last 10 years done great things for living standards; no-one is better qualified to lead across a wider canvas. I said three years ago that I would not be a candidate for the leadership. I meant it and have not wavered from that view. I certainly am not in the business of waiting to pounce on local or Scottish and Welsh election results to change my mind." The big question is: has Miliband missed his chance, or is wisely avoiding leading the Labour Party into an election defeat?

Out with Milibands 'green' credentials!
2007-04-02 19:11:00 LABOUR ACTIVISTS are mounting a bid to oust the environment minister, David Miliband, as head of the party's green wing because he supports nuclear power. Miliband, increasingly mentioned as a possible challenger to Gordon Brown for Labour leader, was appointed president of the Socialist Environmentand Resources Association (Sera) in January. Sera is affiliated to the Labour Party, and has been influential in formulating its environmental policy for years. Although Sera has always opposed nuclear power, Miliband has repeatedly said the technology has a role to play in tackling climate change. Now Scottish Sera members are spearheading a campaign to force Miliband out. They say more than 30 members across the UK have pledged to sign a letter demanding a meeting to discuss a motion calling on Miliband to "graciously move aside". His dad would agree.Fuller version, with added tables and links, here:
CLARKE WILL CHALLENGE BROWN IF MILIBAND DOESN'T
2007-04-01 06:44:00 The view is starting to surface that David Miliband will NOT challenge Brown for the leadership. Not surprising after it was said he would be "human sacrifice" by foriegn secretary Beckett if he chose to stand. It looks as though Miliband is more likely than not positioning himself for a top position in Brown's governement although he has not ruled out standing. If this is the case former home secretary Clarke is ready to challenge Brown. Not necessarily a bad thing as it would force Brown to make public exactly where he stands. Many labour supporters (if there are many left after the recent scandals plaguing Blair's governement) would welcome the challenge as it would give them a chance to openly debate Labour's future.
Foriegn Secretary calls David Miliband a "Human Sacrifice"
2007-04-01 01:05:00 FOREIGN Secretary Margaret Beckett has 'warned' that David Miliband would be offering himself up as a “human sacrifice” if he stood in a Labour leadership battle. When addressing speculation about the minister challenging Gordon Brown Beckett added that Miliband was a “very good minister” as Secretary for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs but the though of challenging Brown was," complete nonsense."She continued saying that “He is very bright. He is a very good minister. I am sure he will be a major figure in the party for a long time to come and a major contender at some time in the future.“But should he take this step to satisfy someone else’s prejudices? He would be daft,” she added. Obvousely not to Beckett but to several others Miliband has been considered to be a candidate who would appeal to supporters of Prime Minister Tony Blair. Any supporters Mr. Blair has left apart from Lord Cashpoint, that is. Although I hear through the grapevine that Lord "Cashpoi...
