"For years now, I and others have been waiting for Miliband to launch a sustained attack on Ukip..." says Nick Cohen in the Observer.
And yet he writes a thousand-word article in which he makes no attempt to engage with UKIP policy: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/nov/22/nigel-farage-is-a-coward-and-cameron-and-miliband-are-too-gutless
Instead he indulges in name calling.
“…rabble-rouser and a coward”
“He plays with racism…”
“…pockets the money of the hardworking taxpayers"
“…an alliance of the septic and the geriatric…”
“…a movement of the empty-headed led by the foul-minded.”
“…a foul stain in national life.”
This is the language of the student union circa 1978.
