Agreed, D Milliband is one hell of a smooth operator. Hes the right choice got Labour but hes quite centralist so the left labour (inc Brown) will be gunning for Ed Balls.

Does make me sick how whoever it is has a decent chance of becoming an unelected prime minister.

Brown seems to have gone early.

Was expecting Harriet Harman to run but seems shes ruled herself out, so removed.

Either D Milliband or a complete outsider would probably be preferable, I dont want Ed Balls in.

Michael Foot and Ed Balls would also have been amusing as PM and deputy  :rofl:

Looks like its a one horse race now, unless something dramatic happens.
