Ed Miliband is clearly struggling to find his place in a post Ed Miliband world. Despite MPs from his own party suggesting the former Labour leader was ‘hanging around like an awkward relative at a funeral’, Miliband has not shied away from Westminster.
Given the comprehensive thumping Ed took at the ballot box, he took a bold decision today to take to Twitter to slam the Prime Minister – remember that guy who beat him last month. A brave decision, if not a wise one.
The response was quick and ruthless, and you’d have to have a heart of stone not to laugh:

@Ed_Miliband Remind us again how you're campaign 'standing for working people' went on 7th May?

Mr S should point out that these were the responses that were fit to print, but at least someone still loves Ed:
