ED MILIBAND is a worse leader than Neil Kinnock and is set to lose Labour the general election, Blairite ex-minister Charles Clarke said yesterday.
In an interview with news website the Huffington Post, former home secretary Charles Clarke said he thought David Cameron would win a majority at next year’s election.
He also heaped laurels on warmongering ex-premier Tony Blair.
“Neil has far, far more qualities than Ed Miliband as a leader,” said Mr Clarke, who served as Neil Kinnock’s chief of staff in his unsuccessful 1987 and 1992 campaigns.
“Neil was a fantastic leader and brought Labour back towards victory.”
The former Norwich South MP argued Ed Balls was wrong in refusing to apologise for Labour “overspending.”
And he said that if Tony Blair were to return to British politics, “he’d have every chance of being elected prime minister, which is … extraordinary.”
