Ed Miliband, current leader of the opposition, is facing a lot of criticism for not being good enough in his position.

What do you think? I like him as a person and I agree with a lot of his politics, but I just can't help but think Labour will be unable to win an election with him as leader.

Should Labour shaft him and get someone else in, or should they stick by him and hope he becomes more popular?

I think, the problem is that he looks like Wallace. And as much as we like Wallace, no one would trust him to run a country, he was outsmarted by a penguin.

And I think anyone in that position faces criticism. Clegg and Cameron are getting it too.

I dunno who would take over though, I don't think there is anyone who really stands out. At least people know him, and if he keeps pushing he'll get through to people. It shouldn't be about looks anyway.

I'd like Yvette Cooper to be leader personally. I'm still somewhat saddened that she didn't run last time (mainly because she didn't want to go up against her husband). I think she comes across well and would be someone who could hold her corner well in the commons, unlike Ed who I feel can be a bit hit and miss.
