Ah, but it's OK for elements of the left to hold Margaret Thatcher street parties and to praise her death!
I sort of understand where they are coming from, to be quite honest with you. But they did it in a very OTT way.
Ed Miliband set the ball rolling by citing his father as a great political inspiration. Having said something like that, it makes sense that people would want to research and/or expose his father's political views if they are found to be dodgy.
That said, the Mail are being massive a***holes about it.
