By now you’ll have seen the video of Cameron and Obama’s table tennis match at a school in south London, so here are some photos from Ed Miliband’s first meeting with the US president.
Accompanying Miliband were Harriet Harman, Douglas Alexander and his consigliere Stewart Wood. The pair met for 40 minutes and reportedly discussed foreign policy and the challenges facing the progressive left (as a recent NS leader noted, the centre left holds or shares power in just eight European countries).

Obama also praised the last Labour government for helping to prevent a global financial meltdown by acting in concert with the US at the G20 summit in 2009. Continuing the theme of sport, Miliband’s gift to Obama was a London 2012 basketball.
