Miliband Snr refuses to serve under brother

LABOUR leader Ed Miliband joked this week about a childhood spat with his brother David over a football.

He explained to a hushed conference that Miliband the elder had become so enraged about the theft of the ball that he threatened to privatise his sibling’s train set.

Now as David Miliband’s career in mainstream Labour politics lies in ruins, it appears Miliband the younger has once again escaped with his brother’s prize possession.
