The Coalition Government and Ed Miliband

Guardian: Has an interesting article on how the PM Cameron and the Conservatives can defeat Ed Miliband at the next election, the article states the following, “ Cameron knows that the longer he keeps the coalition together, the better his chances of beating Miliband. ..”. This is a very interesting strategic view, but it can be argued that the real weapon against Labour will be the economy, if the Coalition cuts work and the Conservatives can promise major tax cuts in 2015 then Labour will lose badly. If the Coalition cuts fail and the economy is a dire state the Labour Party should have an easy victory. But as an ancient Labour PM stated, a week is a long time in politics, the Lib Dems in Government don’t want to face the electorate in till 2015, it’s a long time to go folks. Still bet that “ Red “ Ed Miliband will be replaced by 2015, he could even be replaced by his own brother David Miliband.
