Electric shocker for Ed

THE spectre of the bacon sandwich is once again haunting Ed Miliband. The former Labour leader, who notoriously once made a meal of eating ‘normal’ food (left), has now reversed into a ditch over his use of electric cars. The Doncaster North MP was initially mocked for calling for ‘an electric car revolution’, before admitting he didn’t drive one himself. This month, in the Evening Standard, Miliband revealed he was ‘trying out’ an electric Renault Zoe. Cue outrage from both Tory and Labour colleagues who’ve got in touch wondering why the Shadow Business Secretary didn’t choose a British car.

Asked if he owned the car, Miliband kept mum.
