BLUNDERING Ed Miliband yesterday said Britain’s problems are so bad NO ONE can solve them.

In a Radio 4 interview in which he repeatedly lost his temper, he said: “Are our problems so deep nobody can actually make a difference to them? My emphatic answer to that is yes.”

Mr Miliband also refused to admit Labour would increase borrowing if they were in power — even though Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls had already said as much.

Let it collapse, and then rebuild. That’s what we’ll be doing if Clintoon wins in 2016

I think in my life time, and I’m fifty-seven, Canterbury Cathedral will become a mosque.

All of Britain’s politicians rushed headlong to become EU-loving “Anti-Thatchers” and this is the result.

Silly people who see government as the solution to every problem, they will just keep digging deeper.

The only purpose of Labour is to convince the British public they can lift a turd by the clean end.

The only purpose of Liberal Democrats is to lift the other clean end.

The only purpose of Cameron’s coalition is to hope the previous two are successful while their own hands stay clean.

UKIP is all about getting out a shovel and cleaning up the yard.

No problems are so deep they cannot be solved. The trick is you have to try. Are the Brits finally willing to try?

It costs £76,000 a Day to keep that place open.
The defective concrete in the roof should take care of the problem.
