Maybe Miliband didn't want to talk about the economy or deficit at the time. Did the media and opposing political parties know what he was going to talk about, did they have access to the speech he had prepared?
Did they hell.
It was just that the right-wing media and opposing parties needed to have something to moan about. They haven't stopped moaning since then and it's really boring.
The run-up to this general election is the worst I can ever remember. I am sure that the commentators will be trying to analyse the politicians' farts next.
They also keep saying that this is the most important election since votes were invented. I mean, who really cares?
Labour and the Tories are so similar. It will be the same pro-capitalist/EU/corporations and banks, mob who get into power as before, albeit under an different name perhaps.
How many times do we have to be told by the politicians, and the patronizing media, that the SNP will probably work in conjunction with Labour on a vote-by-vote basis during the next government?
l know who I am going to vote for and I can't wait until the whole process is over.
If Hug Me Dave and his clowns lose, I might celebrate by going down to Whitehall to chant "C^^^, c^^^, C^untMoron f*** off."

Come on Jack.....Miliband's a politician the same as the rest. And they'll say whatever they think will get them votes. This election has a few main battlegrounds including the economy/deficit, immigration/EU and the NHS..... so to not talk about/mention plans on how they are going to deal with these issues going forwards is either a mistake or he doesn't feel it's important enough. Either reason is bad news.
But I agree the run up to this election has been poor. It's turning into a circus with multiple debates that say the same thing over and over. The reason the media keep talking about the SNP and Labour tie up is because the polls are predicting a hung parliament with the SNP being the only party likely to have enough seats to be able to join with another to create a majority....and they won't deal with the Tories. But Miliband probably knows if he entered a coalition with the SNP, it's likely Labour would lose a shed load of votes next time around.....and it's possible this could happen even on a confidence and supply basis. I just see more votes leaving the main parties and heading towards the smaller ones as people realise they can't trust either of them.
