Labour leader Ed Miliband can't remember candidate's name

Help

Labour leader Ed Miliband told the BBC that the Scottish party leadership hopefuls were all "great hitters" - but then failed to name all three vying for the job.

In an interview with BBC Scotland's Westminster correspondent, Tim Reid, Mr Miliband was asked his opinion on the three candidates battling to win the leadership.

They include Tom Harris MP, Johann Lamont MSP and Ken Macintosh MSP - whom Mr Miliband could not name.

He referred to Mr Macintosh as "a third candidate who is putting himself forward."
