SIR – Following Ed Miliband’s redundancy as Labour leader, we see and read across the media an assortment of old Labour grandees, plus younger socialist Turks, pontificate on the theory of socialism and what went wrong.
They all have grand airy fairy ideas for the future, how they love to place us all in certain pigeon boxes so as to appeal to a majority vote.
This is a complete waste of time for them and us, the public. The man who selected the recently defeated Labour leader will choose his successor – Labour Party paymaster general and trade union supremo Len McCluskey!
Trouble is the Labour Party will bore us all to death with hot air for the next 6 months or longer, and we still end up with McCluskey’s choice.
