To Sky News, where Kay Burley’s interview with David Miliband (note for younger readers – he once stood for Labour leader) didn’t go down well with everyone.

Specifically, this person.

📺 | "But we miss you! We need you to come home…"

Bizarre love-in just now between the supposedly impartial @KayBurley and @DMiliband as she begs him to come home. The last thing we need is a sore loser Blairite Remainer returning to Parliament. We've enough of them already! pic.twitter.com/Os2RlcKj0n
