Twigg hails 'very brave' Ed

Twigg hails 'very brave' Ed
Stephen Twigg has praised Ed Miliband for his speech at yesterday's TUC march.

"It was a very brave speech yesterday, he said yesterday exactly what he said at the Labour party conference," the Shadow Education Secretary told the Andrew Marr Show.

He also dismissed the booing of Mr Miliband from some people in the crowd, saying: "There are certain people who come to these demonstrations who will always boo the leader of the Labour party, whatever he says."

Meanwhile, Mr Miliband has asked to meet financial regulators to discuss mis-selling of interest rate products - known as swaps - to small businesses.

Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph, the Labour leader says he is "going into bat" for small firms and complains the Financial Services Authority "isn't moving swiftly enough" on the issue.
