Ed Balls, Labour leadership hopeful and marginal MP, has taken a leaf out of Dave’s Guide to Social Media Campaigning and launched his very own version of “WebCameron” to reignite his faltering campaign. Presumably this is where all Ken Follett’s money is going…oh, and to the intern and volunteer salaries, of course - yeah right.
Ed’s virtual presence is far more professional than the “authentic” WebCameron, with Dave’s homely scenes of cooking breakfast replaced by sinister lighting, more make-up than Heath Ledger’s ‘Joker’ and some serious backtracking on his cosy relationship a certain M.I.A. former Prime Minister.
The video can be found at the candidate’s very own YouTube channel.
