Please welcome the leader of the labour party, ed miliband. [applause] i want to start by thanking somebody from the bottom of my heart. A round of applause for justine, ladies and gentlemen. [applause] not my mum, but a woman called ella phillips. She rode past me on her bike. She fell off. I helped her off, and she called me something i had never been called before. She said i was an action hero. Why are you laughing . She said i was an action hero who mysteriously appeared out of nowhere. She said ed was not geeky at all. She said even the way he appeared was suave. I dont know why you find this so funny. He was dressed casually but had style. Sounds like me, doesnt it . I was pretty pleased with this, as you can tell, until something dawned on me. Ella said, i was seeing things because i was in quite a daze. You are not kidding, but let me say, if you are watching today, thank you. You have made my year. [applause] i want to start today with the simplest of thoughts. An idea that h

Campaign affect the election . Ill speak to Symone Sanders and rick gates ahead. Hello, im jake tapper in washington. We are hoping for a speedy recovery for President Trump in the hospital for the third day and being treated for covid19 which has willed more than 209,000 americans. Late saturday, the president released another video and the white house provided images of the president reportedly working from the hospital. A new statement was put out saying he had made, quote, substantial progress since the diagnosis but the state of his condition is confusing at best. The doctors briefed the public on his condition and they object f refused to give basic information about his, say, his temperature.
