Labour Leadership

Here we go, last little bit of the way...

Any thoughts?

For non-Brits, the candidates are;
- David Miliband, pretty much continuity candidate with quite a bit of experience
- Ed Miliband, his younger brother, a bit more "fiery radical" type in style and considered to have more balls but possibly too leftwing for some of the electorate
- Ed Balls, a senior figure close to Gordon Brown. Good debater and effective politician but possibly too close to the last government.
- Andy Burnham, a straight-talking northerner concerned with equality quite a bit but not so liberal
- Diane Abbott, a leftwinger with no hope in hell.

We find out at the end of the month. :)
