ED MILIBAND – RUBIK CUBE MASTER

So Miliband’s PR puts out some nonsense about the fact that Red Ed can complete a Rubik Cube puzzle in one and a half minutes. The BBC instantly laps this up, runs an item on it here, with the presenter (Evan Davies) quietly expressing his admiration for the puzzle solving skills of the Labour leader even when the guest expressed a view that 10-20 seconds is more like the speed of a fast Rubik cube solver. It seems that in the absence of Miliband making any impact on the British public, the BBC chooses to try and create the impression he is some sort of genius. That’s the real puzzle!

MILIBAND BROADCASTING CORPORATION?

I noticed that the BBC has been merrily spinning the line that although Europe yearns for him, Mr Bean look-a-like David Miliband has “rejected” the chance to become EU High Representative. I wonder who it is in the EU that is so enthusiastic to get Miliband into this position, exactly? The BBC does not tell us – though I am sure Miliband enjoys all the PR he has obtained this morning.
