“I was really popular on Vine and then they abolished it” lmao
lol
😂
Elon is bringing it back
@@marleneboycie4004 Elon is a nonce
I love how he says they "abolished" vine like we were living in the vine prohibition
2.2K likes and no replies? Lemme fix that
Ironic that Milliband was publicly "disgraced" for eating a bacon sandwich, while David Cameron more or less escaped criticism for actually having sex with a dead pig.
Truer words have never been spoken
A story which was only ever reported by a disgruntled Tory peer in the Daily Mail. Don't believe bullshit even if it fits your predispostion
sex with a dead pig? TF?? i never heard that, sounds like bullshit
Ah, the dead pig thing. It is curious that this is the only Daily Mail story that the Left chose to believe as gospel truth.
It's amazing how much the right wing will bombard people with smear campaigns.
Ed accidentally almost kicking the laptop over after reliving 9 minutes of his embarrassing moments is relatable content.
Definitely worthy of a meme in itself.
Delivering chaos in every moment!
I love the fact that by repeating his sentence he made it really easy to cut that bit out but they decided to keep it in because it's his vibes
that was the cherry of this video
The comedic timing would've been perfect as he'd just said "in politics you have to remember that you have ups and downs". Just on the word "downs" he kicks the laptop off the desk.
It’s a shame that Politics forces people to hide their real personalities. Ed seems to be a nice human. Slightly goofy in a nice way.
What is this man's "real" personality? He is a politician, this is penguin books - would he choose to present himself any other way?
Politics forces noone to do anything. People within politics make calculated choices regarding their behaviours in relation to the audience at the time.
@@lukemclellan2141 shut up.
@@alecgurney9305 no
@@alecgurney9305 why is true lol
@Liam H absolutely. Until someone tries to feed me bullshit.
What do you do? Lap it up?
Funny thing is Ed had proved he is tough. Being tough isn't necessarily being the loudest, the meanest or the most arrogant. Being tough is being bullied by the media, suffering a big defeat and still carrying on living his best life!
Yes! I love that about him! He's though but in a kind, almost wholesome way and has kept the keep calm and carry on mantra through!
Sure as hell better than Starmer
Very True.
i appreciate that he doesn't seem to take himself too seriously. definitely a problem here in america where every politician has an ego the size of the earth
The US is the curse of the world.
@@SuperHorsecow all the US is, is a good idea that's got way out of hand.
Few months of therapy will help anyone help realise the world can't be taken too seriously all the time otherwise we'll be screaming into the void until eternity.
Me to, but he's definitely only able to act the way he does now because he's no longer such a large public figure, ide love for him to bring more of this down to earth and humble culture to the labour party going forward.
@@KissMyFatAxe Al Murray?
He actually epitomises the positive aspects of ‘Britishness’ - polite, charmingly awkward, humble in both defeat and success.
Seems to genuinely understand and care about people’s plights.
Hope he gets another shot at the top of politics in the future.
Yeah but didn't he backstab his own brother to become Labour leader?
@@pinksphaghetti
No, he stood for election. His brother is not a King. He doesn’t get to ascend unopposed. And I’m more David than Ed politically.
I don't think he should have another crack. He mentioned how much being Leader of the Opposition hurt his mental health, bein the PM would just make him even more upset
@@pinksphaghetti if by backstab you mean "ran against him in an open democratic process and won" then yes
It was only the Tory press that spun that as backstabbing his brother
@@uthmanhanif6321 You and me both brother
I won't lie the man has aged incredibly well he looks better than ever
Especially with the gray in his hair
He's kinda cute ngl
He has lost weight
He’s much more electable with a bit of grey in his hair
@Common Sense He’s always been tan, because he’s from a different ethnic background.
"In fact, I once put it on a Christmas card I think"
Like it or not, Ed has a better sense of humour than most of your mates.
What kinda mates you got?
If he was like this as leader he may have won

Always had a soft spot for Ed, anyone who got the amount of grief he got deserves respect.
No
lol
The man is Jewish isn't he? Why would he be touching bacon anyhow?
@@aclark903 Because he's secular. He's culturally Jewish, but is an atheist.
@@legomaniac856 In #Maccabees Jews die by torture rather than eat #pork. Maybe Ed agrees with Jesus, who said:
"Whatever comes from outside cannot make a person unclean, since it enters not the heart but the stomach.." (Mark 7:18-19)
Imagine how different things would be if he won instead of Cameron? No Brexit, no Boris as PM - the BBC would probably be airing a documentary about Bees or something...
He actually comes across as a very likable bloke.
@dylan murphy ancestral heritage? Oh the one where we went round stealing a bunch of shit? Oh and yeah look how good brexit is going for us, I'm so glad we were lied to and that atrocity happened.
@dylan murphy *DING DING DING* We have found the village racist!!
@dylan murphy racist chav lmao
@@abibas3050 that fact your name is t!ts makes you lose all credibility
@dylan murphy you jumping to the assumption that I’m a “privileged middle class boy” shows me just how much you look down on other people. Also judging from your other comments you would easily fit in the edl lmao.
Good on Ed Miliband for having a great sense of humour and humility, and taking it all in his stride with a thick skin. An admirable and funny guy who I'm glad is still sitting in our Parliament
Can Matt Hancock do one reacting to his affair memes? 😂
My eyes are still burned from watching the cctv footage of him 😭
Yes I’d watch this, him tryna waffle his way through all of them
@@nameslesss I'm still going through counselling from it lol
Ahh yes the time Matt Hancock set up getting fired so a banker could take his place to sell the nhs off
Much respect to Ed Milliband. An intelligent, principled, caring man who has been vindicated by history, and would have made a far better Prime Minister than any of the awful Tories we've had since Brown. The way he was treated by the Tories, by the Tory press, and by large parts of the electorate, was disgusting.
Gordon Brown was a member of the Labour party, but I agree with your sentiment regardless.
@@joshuaamberson5266 I know. Perhaps my phrasing was awkward; I meant since Brown lost to Cameron in 2010.
I will say this for Ed- he does seem charismatic compared to Kier.
Hear hear, I much preferred war criminal Blair and that Scottish guy who ran away from the old woman in Rochdale
@@joshuaamberson5266 he was a red tory
He should run for leader again and use David Cameron’s Tweet as his campaign slogan.
Yes! And run for PM using that!
If that profile picture is your political compass, then I have to conclude that you sir, are very based.
Just what labour needs, more gutter campaigning
We've had years of disappointing "Strong and stable" government, now it's time for "Chaos with Ed Miliband"
bro pls challenge starmer for the leadership he would be so much better now with that streak of grey in his hair
Sadly the media would have a field day with Ed which is made worse by his seat being in a very risky position. Somebody like Nandy may be better.
@@zexal4217 nah shes to slavish in her support of israeli apartheid imo, im cleaning clive lewis
@@aananhenderson2689 No idea what you're on about... She's been vocal and outspoken in support of Palestinians...
@@zexal4217 shes literally said no one should be allowed in the labour party unless they accept israel's right to exist for palestinians whov'e been ethnically cleansed as a result of israel's setltler colonialist project thats not support
He's far better in the shadow cabinet as he was in a leadership position. There are other good candidates for Labour leadership if Starmer doesn't improve.
'tuss in us' and the bacon sandwich set off a chain of events that led to brexit and nigel farage.
ed's was the first labour leadership contest i was old enough to vote in. i really believed in him then and i still do now. i cant help but wonder what life would have been like.. the alternative reality where we got ed ... just thinking about it breaks ma damn heart
I met Ed at an event. He was exactly like this and really lovely. I actually joined Labour under Ed in 2013 and this year I stood (unsuccessfully) for a council seat.
Well done for actually doing something more than whinging on social media. Hope you do better next time.
@@jamesmflynn it was a good experience. It wasn't a seat Labour are ever going to win, but I did increase our vote.
Notable that at the Labour conference a few weeks ago ( seems an eternity given the chaos unleashed by the Tory cult sometimes known as the government) he was interviewed on C4 news and a crowd were gathered to listen, applauding at the end. His wife smiled at me while I was waiting for my ( now) wife outside the ticket office at the Hay Festival in around 2010 ( not been since 2011). Didn't have to and just being pleasant. He does come across very well. He did not move Labour enough to the left in my view but paved the way for Corbyn with the rule change for electing the leader. The treatment of Ed by the media was a disgrace, at the time the worst since Kinnock in the 1980s, since surpassed by the treatment of Corbyn. Looks like at last this government is doomed to heavy election defeat, another 1945 or 1997 moment!
Same event, talked to him about commodore 64 games lol
Had the pleasure of meeting Ed Miliband at a charity do once. He was surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny.
I honestly had no idea Ed Miliband was so likeable. Still not entirely sure what kind of PM he’d have made, but I’d probably have voted Labour if I’d seen this self-deprecating, borderline-philosophical, good-humoured, balanced side of him before the 2015 election. Unfortunately he didn’t really come across as well (or as a convincing leader) back then. That said, I absolutely detested the way so many in the media treated the guy as nothing but a walking punchline.
I don’t know, perhaps 2015 was just too early for him-I remember watching the debates and just couldn’t imagine him as Prime Minister (that said, if it had been a choice between _only_ Ed Miliband or David “spawn of Satan” Cameron I’d have gladly voted Labour without a second thought).
Ed Miliband 2021 > Sir Keir Starmer
dylan murphy Hmm…a leader being somewhat self-deprecating, thoughtful, and not a complete narcissistic egomaniac (*cough*Trump*cough*) sounds like a good thing to me.
dylan murphy In what way does self-deprecating humour prevent someone having confidence in the nation and their policies?
dylan murphy Again, who are all these self-deprecating leaders you say we’ve had enough of?
Find it kinda ironic that you are now looking down on Starmer in the same way you looked down on Ed. Give it 5 years and maybe you'll appreciate him also. Media trash labour leaders.
Adam Cox I’m not quite following you on this one. Expressing a preference for one person over another isn’t really “looking down” on someone, is it? For all you know I could regard Starmer as the the second best leader Labour has ever had. I’m also not sure in what sense you think I looked down on Ed Miliband-I said I didn’t think he came across that well as a potential PM but that I hated how he was treated as a joke.
Dreaming of chaos with Ed!
As an OG Milibae I'm so glad that he's still going strong and still a lovely, humble and up beat person :)
"You know you have your ups and downs" then nearly knocks the laptop off the desk hahahah
If Ed had just shown this side to him instead of trying to act the way he thought people expected him to act he would probably be leader.
I still voted for him. Because i never trust a tory
@@shayZero Stereotyping much? Would take Ken Clarke at the drop of a hat at the moment
@@BobSmith-wc4hr Have you seen Ken Clarke at the contaminated blood scandal inquiry? Wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him, personally.
Yeah it's all his fault...
He’s like that middle child uncle no one really talked about, but when you met him seemed like just a normal bloke.
“I would have loved to deliver chaos” lol
me, 2021, would do anything to have chaos with ed miliband.
So tragic he didn't win in 2015. A genuinely decent man who actually likes his country, characteristics not universally shared by recent leaders.
Politics is a pretty nasty business, and it's fully of some pretty shitty human beings.
I didn't vote for him back in the day, but my impression is that, like him or not, Ed Miliband is a decent bloke. An actually decent person who cares about people and tries to be honest.
Pretty rare in politics.
Thats why he didnt win and never could have.
Better than David Cameron now?
@@josephbrennan370 As a person, definitely.
David Cameron does not seem like a real person at all.
Yeah, but none of that counts with the voters if he eats a sandwich weirdly 🙄
Same with Corbyn. The media hated him because his policies would of cost the media moghuls a big tax increase. Terrified by a decent man who has an allotment
He’s a likeable and humorous man. Shame he wasn’t himself when he was leader. That’s a PR fault, media training nonsense. The public would rather see the genuine article than some maniac robot arm gestures like Blair or Cameron.
That's Boris' secret. He didn't look and act like an android from a politician making factory! His hair makes him look down to earth
@@oliverford5367 which is weird because if anything his hair seems to be going against gravity..
He comes across so much more likeable and relaxed now. A real shame we didn't see more of this side of him when he was leader.
Everyone has to be to careful as not too offend the supporters.
I was quite young when he was rocking about, he doesn't seem like that much of a tosser
He shows more personality nowadays
He was a tosser. Probably a likeable bloke but did such an awful job as the party leader.
Labour thought we wanted to see a centre right Labour leader like Blair so they played that up. Didn't work. Ed was always a decent guy though.
You know what? He has aged really well, and looks SO much better than he did 5 years ago
Ok so it's not just me. I didn't really 'notice' him that way until a few years ago, age has somehow enhanced his positive features.
Gotta say it, Ed Miliband seems like a good bloke. Course he's a politician so he's careful with what he says, but he does seem like a genuine man and I'd love to see him back in big politics
Nice guy but he's not a leader.
@@stpetersburg7088 I suppose that depends on what you look for in a leader. Personally I like someone who seems honest and at least genuine enough for me to relate to him. That puts Miliband way ahead of any of the prime ministers I've been alive for (I was born in '96 so I guess my first memorable PM was Gordon Brown).
@@rickybojangles162 yea, he could lead a church choir or a charity countryside clean up group, sure. I'm not saying he wouldn't be a good leader in some context but the leader of a political party, no.
@@rickybojangles162 ppl have concerns about international tension ect and Ed miliband would get bullied. Do you not see that in him?
@@stpetersburg7088 everything is perspective and we obviously we things from a different point of view. I don't look for a bully to lead, that's what I didn't like about Mr Trump. I'd rather have a quiet critical thinker than a loudmouth who can throw weight around.
I see Britain as a priority and so put less weight on a leader being able to intimidate other leaders.
Are you or have you been a labour supporter in the past say 15 years? Just out of interest
It took crashing and burning for Ed to turn into a chill dude.
Ed should make a come back, the way he took Boris to Task in PMQs means he's tough enough now for sure!
heck yes he's tough enough
Just like Ed to nearly destroy the laptop at the end of the interview
Ed Miliband is a national treasure 🥺there's something incredibly likeable about someone who can have a public laugh about themselves, and show decorum in the process. I seriously regret not voting for him in 2015 😢
What a humble guy, we should bring him back!
It hurts to think we could have had this guy over Cameron..
Like we have a choice. The media control who gets the votes and they couldn’t give a shit who is worse off for it
@@Beamboy555 yh, it's depressing
Why? He was as vacuous as the current leader
Ed went comprehensive so can relate to normal ppl. Boris is an Eton toff. Where it costs 30k a yr!
Yeah, that bacon butty really screwed us over.
I would absolutely love to have you back Edd. Come back please
This was unexpectedly hilarious
He’d be ace to go for a pint with
Or a bacon sandwich
He's a little weasel with a nasaley voice. David is the cool brother
^ David’s burner account
Lol why wasn't he just his natural self like this while he was a politician.
“The thing about politics though is… you have ups and downs”
*Nearly kicks laptop off the table*
I love the advice at the end. Ed seems so sincere.
What an absolute legend! Ed Miliband is a national treasure in my opinion.
How have I ended up here at 5am and why do I now fancy Ed miliband
I like Ed Miliband. He's one of the few politicians who seems to be in it for the right reasons.
i like ed , hes a good egg ... all the potential PMs since 2015, and what we have had ... feels like losing at the end of bullseye and seeing what you could of won
"feel like shit, just want chaos with ed milliband"
I was 13 in 2015 and on wattpad i wrote a fan fiction about ed miliband. 😢
I think his brother was a better statesman. However, having more humble, thick skinned, moderate people in parliament is a good shout. We appear to rush from crisis to crisis. I feel as if there’s a PG Woodhouse character representing us on the world stage. When he should be falling over at an intramural cricket match. Xxxxxxxxx
Ed is the best PM we never had. I love his podcast, he's always worth listening to and seems much more comfortable with himself now, as he should be, he's great.
It’s called reasons to be cheerful and it’s ok Spotify/Apple podcast!
I just became a Millibae, I didn't know Ed was so cool.
‘Bacon-gate’ is the best moment in modern British politics.
Better than Piggate, that's for certain.
@@fds7476 lmao
What about the Edstone though
That laptop kick at the end settled it. I want ed miliband in power 🤣
I'm Irish so you can imagine why I absolutely loved his speech on the Internal Market Bill
They should have had the audio from when he took over radio 2 and they had him doing death metal screams on mic. It was amazing.
His podcast called Reasons to be Cheerful (with Geoff Lloyd) is excellent. Been listening since the beginning.
This man is an extra in Wallace and Gromit surely.
Him and Suella Braverman are both Nick Park characters.
Can't believe they didn't make him react to the "What you saying Ed? I'm saying Hi" video. It was too funny.
Ive always appreciated that he can laugh at himself. I think that’s so important, especially for politicians who (let’s be real) don’t often know how!
Tbf after everything that's happened the last 5 years Ed doesn't seem all that bad lol
bless him - what a good man
When Ed Miliband lost his job, he went and hung out with Citizens UK, a grassroots activists group campaigning to make this country a better place. He's a good guy.
Love a bit of Ed. Don't necessarily agree with all his politics but I feel I could have a laugh with him. Like an older, goofier brother straight out of Wallace and Grommit 😂
poor bloke having an election campaign ruined becsue he bought his wife some flowers and ate a sandwich
He was his spin doctors worst nightmare
Penguin: we need you to make a video point fun at your gaffs and clumsiness.
Ed: nearly kicks over laptop while discussing past gaffs.
🤣🤦🤣🤦🤣🤦🤣
for subtitle users, i believe the (indistinct) at 8:13 is Ed saying "Kier Starmer"
8:12
Omg, I kind of love Ed Miliband now - what a good humoured and lovely fella 😂
He seems like a nice guy.
It’s so funny how Ed how now grown a backbone, I love him now he’s grown into his own personality and you can see it when he’s at that dispatch box.
Not a big Miliband Brother's fan but, it's good to see his comeback, especially after years of Cameron's domination in parliament. He was no match back then. But Cameron also experienced a spectacular fall from grace after the referendum and hasn't been heard from really since. Whereas it seems Miliband eventually brushed off the dust, and has been making a 'strongish" comeback of sorts in the last year or so. Well done!
Why do I find Ed so wholesome in this xD Bless him
Ed Miliband is a good guy.
When he nearly knocked the laptop off
😂😂😂😂
I wish we had gotten the choas with Ed Milliband. Never trust a Tory
you wouldn't trust a tory but you'd trust him to not fuck up the country any more after brown? get real.
@@youwot2430 lol I’ll let you tell me the homelessness rate ever since Cameron won
He actually seems like a chill dude
The more I see of Ed the more I love him, I wish he'd one the 2015 election i think he would have been great PM and a strong leading government
please please do bacon sandwich mukbang
I voted for him. My first time voting too. Still happy with my choice although he sadly didn't win. He's a politician that genuinely cares.
I was too young to vote when Ed was leader but I’d vote for him in a heartbeat 😂
Always liked Ed, he was a laughing stock in 2015 and I always felt sorry for him. If he ran in 2015 with the personality he has now he probably would’ve beat David Cameron
In what way has he improved ?
@@samjoshi1812 He doesn't act like a bore in a suit for starters

@@samjoshi1812 Does for me
@S ? It is factual observation
Just imagine for a moment that Labour won in 2015 and Ed became PM... really wish we had some of that "chaos" right now!
If Ed got into power this country would never be so divided like it is today.
i missed u ed!!! never loved him more lmaoo icon
This video, back then, would have won him the election
I will always have a soft spot for Ed
Yes your brown star
I like how generous he is with his meme scores
I got about a minute into that and then couldn't be arsed
Gonna watch this before going to sleep in order to dream about an alternative timeline where this country voted for “chaos.”
what a legend- how did i not know this guy was cool
This was nice. More MPs should do this. Hancock should be a good one.
I don't think Hancock doesn't have the same charm 🤣
@@jeffsterling2809 well he clearly had some degree of charm
We need more people like Ed in politics - people who are actually down to Earth, able to not take themselves too seriously, and can stand in the face of adversity.
Looking good, Ed, and not taking yourself too seriously. I think you're a cool guy. I haven't a clue what your book is about but I've just taken the plunge and ordered it. Good luck with it. Also, please pick any day of the year and randomly tweet "Ed Milliband" on that day. It would be hilarious
Moral of the story just be yourself instead of the robot politician he was as leader.
I've always liked Ed, seems like an alright bloke.
His Sandwich picture is one of my favorite pictures of all time. It's so funny.
I was so tempted to buy a singed copy of your book but I though id buy 2nd eventually to save the planet. love your podcast though
