I don't think it probably damaged him dramatically, but it probably damaged him just enough to lose the election.

I can't tell if people are joking or not ,but the ridiculous fuss over that photo of Milliband eating a sandwich .. for god sake.

He was eating a sandwich & got snapped in a photo, the same people making fun of him .. well how many of them have their photos taken whilst their caught off guard eating?? ,How many of them look unflattering? . Bloke was eating a sandwich ..not sniffing coke .

The reaction was so OTT . How does the way he eats a sandwich determine whether he'll be a bad PM ??.

Poor Ed Milliband couldn't catch a break, people kept wanting his brother as leader instead as they're never satisfied. And his voice got made fun of aswell. Nobody listened to what he was saying. They just mocked him .

Personally I agree with everything you've said in this post.

But being real the Media and a large section of the public loved mocking him for the most silly reasons imaginable.
