Reporting this Compass / YouGov poll, the Sunday Telegraph concentrates on the news that Labour members think Peter Mandelson is doing a better job than Harriet Harman. Yet, to my eyes, there’s a more a striking finding in there. 74 percent of respondents think that David Miliband is doing a good job. And that after Miliband’s abortive leadership coup; the infamous banana and Heseltine moments; the disastrous trip to India; and his ill-advised ‘War on Terror’ article for the Guardian. It’s enough to make a Foreign Secretary think he could be party leader after all.
