I like Ed, he's a character, a proper footy fan not a plastic, and always up for a bit of shamelessly embarrassing himself. I'd certainly prefer to go for a beer with him, than Gove, Johnson, Corbyn, or Clegg

It is still a thing I see on Nerdania this Ed Balls day.

Someone I know well has worked in Whitehall a long time and tells me Ed Balls was one of the few ministers that did any prep for meetings or read briefing notes. Decent man.

I met him the morning after he lost his seat, in Leeds in a coffee shop. He had come straight from the count, and I was arriving for a meeting and getting a coffee on the way in. He was sitting on his own, and he looked absolutely broken.

Spoke to him for maybe 2 minutes, and he was absolutely lovely. Happy for his wife (who had held her seat), and supportive of the new MP for his seat - said that he wished him well etc. Given that he had effectively lost his job a few hours earlier, he was just a nice guy who was polite and happy to chat about the reasons for the defeat - as others have said, a thoroughly decent man.

he may well be a decent chap and solid member of society but seriously who would buy **** like that

Lovely interview with him on Jay Rayners Out To Lunch podcast.

The David Lammy one is good too. Both come across as decent, thoughtful, intelligent human beings light years ahead of anyone in cabinet today.
