New Statesman - What Everton’s David Moyes can teach the Labour Party

Andy Burnham (a politician I've admired) explains the leadership lessons he's learnt from David Moyes:

He's a wonderful role model; the Moyes textbook would be on my desk as leader. Let me give you a few examples:
* Loyalty. He sticks by people who are loyal to him. That's one of my traits.
* He's brought stability: that's a great strength in a leader.
* He doesn't flip about in the wind and do one thing one day and one the other.
* He doesn't do some of the things other Premiership managers did, like grabbing a microphone on the pitch and lecturing players on the pitch; he doesn't go in for showiness.

Although I like Burnham for his 'everyday man' qualities, and would love noting more than a blue at the helm of the Labour Party. The sad truth is that he simply doesn't appeal to southern England. The UK's next election (as all elections) are won & lost in south-east England. Therefore the only credible candidates would be one of the Milibands.
