Taste, Tom. TASTE. Our leaders have no taste.
But then, judging by who we’ve elected ever since I’ve been able to understand the process, neither has the electorate.
(not satire – it’s the UK today!)
From a lot of the press coverage, you’d think it was only Labour leader Ed Miliband who made the huge mistake of endorsing the Sun by posing with it.
Because Clegg and Cameron did it too:
And of course so did Boris and Farage.
Do our leaders have no shame?

Of those conned into this PR stunt, I suspect Milliband, and/or his advisors, should have known about the Liverpool / Sun situation, and prevented this gaffe. Refusal by Milliband may have provoked a Sun smear campaign, but Hillsborough is too iconic for that to have any weight.
Mike, I do hope your not seeking some form of forgiveness or absolution from Miliband !
Ha ha! No, just putting his action in context.
