JUNE 2011 - BALLS CRITICISES THE CHANCELLOR

I know some say he's a thoroughly nice chap ( however my feelings were expressed in an earlier blog  ) , but Ed Balls would do well to learn to be constructive in his criticism.  This is important because he rarely appears  to break cover unless its to say something falling under the head of "criticism". 

Now bless Ed, he says that if a plan is not working, then a Chancellor should change course.  The thing is, Ed, when talking about such complex things as the economy, it's a matter of opinion whether something is working or not.  Show me one group of economists saying one thing and I'll show you another group of economists saying another.  They're a bit like lawyers in this respect.  It's opinion see?  So you might not think its working, but the Chancellor might think it is.  Ed, I'm going to side with the Chancellor on this one and not you.  Sorry but I just find it hard to trust what you say.
