After a shaky start as leader, Miliband seems to be really finding his feet of late.

In the last few Prime Minister questions, Miliband has trounced Cameron.

Once where Cameron had no idea that recovering cancer patients were losing substantial amounts of benefits.
Another time where Call me Dave had no idea that he was backing a bill to remove DNA info from the police database for people accused of rape, despite Theresa May making frantic efforts to put him right about the detail.
Another when Call me Dave had no idea that the Lansley Health Reforms (remember them?) were quadrupling the number of health quangos.

And now we have the phone hacking scam, where Miliband has led the way with a policy stated for a substantial period prior to the Millie Dowler phone hacking case in which the BSkyB bid should be referred to the Competition Commission. In comparison Cameron has had to be dragged screaming along behind, trying to play catchup and can only say "I wanted to give Coulson a second chance" in explanation for his decision to ignore many, many warnings that Coulson was linked to criminal activity at the NOTW and put Coulson at the heart of government with top security clearance.

Despite I am sure an all-out onslaught to come from the Murdoch media and the rest of the Tory press, I think (hope?) this could be a turning point for Miliband.

Miliband has been pretty quiet on everything until this week and he's only emerged when he feels absolutely safe to do so. Let's face it, kicking Cameron about a bit when he's right at the centre of a possible corruption storm is not exactly difficult. Anyone could have performed this well given such a glaring opportunity as this.

Even Gordon fucking Brown is looking like a cross between Jesus and Elvis

Miliband is doing well.

No, it is not.
But he's also been kicking Rupert M., and you could not call that 'safe', whatever the circumstances.

He's still a complete and utter wanker in my book and always will be. Along with his former boss the idiot Cyclops and the new controller of the Paliamentary Labour Party, the fucking bastard Balls.

"Miliband has been pretty quiet on everything until this week "

This is wrong.

Under Miliband's leadership it has been Labour party policy to get the BSkyB bid put before the Competition Commission which is just what Murdoch originally wanted to avoid and why he delayed until after Cameron got elected PM. This Labour party policy has been held long before "until this week".
