Ed Miliband: My children 'know who I am now'

Former Labour leader Ed Miliband says one of the consolations of losing the general election is that his children "know who I am now".

Miliband resigned immediately following the result, saying his party must "rebuild" with a new leader.

"There are some consolations," said Miliband. "I get to spend some time with my children - they know who I am now. They recognise me in the mornings. There are some upsides in what obviously is a very disappointing situation."

Miliband added later "I came back to parliament a couple of weeks after the election and spoke about issues I care about like inequality, which is an issue I will continue to talk about. I will keep speaking out about the issues that I care about."
