Yeah, that's confused me. In reality, he's probably just a few iotas to the left of his brother. Admittedly, the influence of the unions in his victory did give the right-wing press a bit of a field day. Of course, Cameron had to let loose the tiresome homophobe Baroness Warsi with a snarky soundbite. It's a real shame that the first Muslim in the cabinet happens to be such a dullard.
It's telling how people complained about the narrow ideological ground the election was fought over, but when a candidate presents anything even slightly different, they're immediately dismissed as 'unelectable'. How's about a bit of (god forbid) genuine debate?!?
