Who’s that funny man with Batgirl?

Labour MP David Miliband appears to be seeking advice from a superhero yesterday as he stops to chat with Sarah Oatman, 3, during a visit to Edinburgh.

In a speech later at the University of Edinburgh, the former foreign secretary admitted Labour had ‘failed’ Scotland in the 2011 Scottish elections. He said the SNP had ‘the right ideas’ for Scotland. But asked whether he supported independence, he said: ‘Of course not.’ Picture: Allan Milligan
