Miliband positioned far left in TV debate

LABOUR leader Ed Miliband will be positioned to the far left and Nigel Farage, pictured, to the far right in Thursday night's challengers TV debate.

The BBC-produced debate features the main opposition parties in the General Election but excludes Conservative David Cameron and Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg as the leaders of the last government.

Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood will be positioned next to Mr Miliband, with Green leader Natalie Bennett in the middle of the group and SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon to the right-hand side next to the Ukip leader.
