Election 2015
Ed Miliband fails to look normal whilst eating a bacon sandwich
It is possibly the most infamous picture of Ed Miliband ever taken – the moment he tucked into a bacon sandwich whilst on the campaign trail in the run up to last year’s local and European elections and failed to look normal.
In an attempt to connect with the ‘common man’ the Labour leader visited a café in Covent Garden, London to enjoy a bacon sandwich.
However, he struggled with the sarnie and the resulting image became the source of widespread mocking on social media. The image was doctored into scenes from sitcom Seinfeld and Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper painting.
To make matters worse, Miliband couldn’t be trusted to finish the sandwich and it was taken off him by his aids and given to a fellow MP.
