Poor Ed.
First he kicked off his tour of the country today by visiting a cafe in Bedford, where the owner revealed that “I find the Conservatives are more pro-business”.
Then he went to a brewery in Bedford, where one of the bosses says “The move by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, to not only abolish the duty escalator but to actually reduce duty was a welcome one, allowing the Group to pass the 1p saving on to our brewery pub licensees”.
Surely Ed’s afternoon trip to Doncaster to campaign on zero-hour contracts can’t possibly go wrong? He better ignore the fact that Labour-run Doncaster council employs 300 people on zero-hour contracts, mind.
Another good day on the stump then.

What a chump! :laugher:

Normally, the prospect of Ed Miliband being interviewed on the Today programme is enough for me to dive back under the duvet and contemplate the after-life.
Mister Ed is nobody’s idea of a comedian. But when asked by Sarah Montague about an exclusive story in the Daily Mirror claiming that 60 Labour MPs were employing staff on ‘zero-hours’ contracts, he came out with the best punchline of the year:
‘I haven’t seen that report.’
It was the funniest thing I’d heard since the Daily Mirror/Viglen shares scandal. During that investigation, Piers Morgan denied any involvement in illegal insider-trading on the grounds that he didn’t actually read the Daily Mirror.
Which was curious, to say the least, given that Morgan was editor of the Mirror at the time.
Equally, for the leader of the Labour Party to pretend that he hadn’t read a story about 60 Labour MPs in the Labour-supporting Daily Mirror is beyond absurd.
OK, so Ed is a paid-up North London Guardianista, rather than a typical Northern working-class Mirror reader. But the Mirror is his party’s most dependable cheerleader in Fleet Street and a must-read for every Shadow Cabinet minister and Labour backbencher.
Even if Miliband missed it over his muesli on Friday, he employs people to keep him up to speed.
