It’s day two of Ed Miliband standing in for Jeremy Vine on Radio 2’s lunchtime show.
So how’s the former Labour leader doing?
Do you have an OLD toilet at home? With a high-up cistern? Pull handle flush? Do you love it? Want to tell Ed Miliband about it on Radio 2?

Regular listeners to the Radio 2 lunchtime show will know it’s no stranger to dramatic shifts of tone, and today was no exception.
