BBC News - Ed Miliband hit by egg on campaign trail in London

Ed Miliband has tried to laugh off being pelted with eggs during a campaign visit in south London.

The Labour leader removed his jacket and told people "these things happen" after being hit by at least one egg in East Street Market, Walworth.

He carried on talking to stallholders and shoppers as the egg thrower was stopped by market security staff.

"This is not the first time it's happened to me, I'm sure it's not the last," says Mr Miliband.
well at least he didn't lamp the protester.
