Today’s PMQs was full of verve and bite. A welcome change after last week’s
washout. It’s all getting a bit tasty between Ed and Dave. The Labour leader opened with Libya and after making ritual noises about wanting to support the government’s foreign policy he
admitted he found it hard not to voice his ‘concern about incompetence’. Nice tactics there. Pose as a statesman and stick the blade in under the table. But Cameron wasn’t
standing for it. ‘I don’t want to take a lecture from Labour about dealing with Libya and Gadaffi,’ he said furiously. And the cheers from the Tory benches redoubled when he
called for Labour to apologise for its part in the release of the still-not-dead Al Megrahi.
Miliband dealt with this by seizing on what Cameron had failed to say.
