Ed v. David

Brilliant:

Ed Miliband will stand for the Labour leadership, the BBC has learned... Ed said he had thought long and hard about standing against his older sibling, while David earlier insisted "brotherly love will survive".

There we have it - thus far, the best, most ambitious people that the Labour party has to offer as a potential leader are two of the least credible siblings since the Chuckle Brothers.

Perhaps, rather than having a debate, they could have an arm-wrestle. Or maybe a race. I don't know what they'll decide on, but those cheeky wee scamps had better be nice to each other, or Mother Miliband will come and smack the backs of their legs!
