settled question on option 'Yes'.
Yes he still is.

Background


Despite the austerity policies of the UK coalition government the Labour Party leader and official Leader of the Opposition is remarkably unpopular. He is in the position of being far less popular as a person than his own party.

The next UK General election will be in 2015 so, if the Labour Party wants his successor to establish credibility before then, any putsch against Miliband should take place soon.
