ITV News_Ed Miliband's first ever TV appearance as a fresh-faced student

Ed Miliband was confronted with his younger self when he was interviewed by ITV News Meridian.

After taking questions from political correspondent Phil Hornby about the election battle in the south of England, he was asked to watch a video of his first ever television appearance.

It showed Ed Miliband - or, as he preferred then, Ted Miliband - leading a rent strike on behalf of Oxford students in the spring of 1991.

A slim, youthful-looking Miliband is heard arguing against the iniquity of a 27 per cent proposed rise.
