Waterson hit TV screens around the world when he fried an egg on the street under the Walkie Talkie skyscraper

Nothing but the best (presumably he did that with City AM, a financial freesheet)

But that guy's an example of someone who is just quite mean-spirited and insulting - see his flood posts.

Here's Jim Waterson with more hard hitting journalism. I guess we can't say he won't milk a "story" till its last drop.

15 Pictures Of Ed Miliband Staring At Things

The Labour leader needs to make the most of his "blue steel" look.

Ed Miliband launched his "staring at floods" pout last week, striking fear into all who saw it.

Inspired by this, the Destiny Miliband Tumblr set about showing how the Labour leader could bring his commanding stare to other situations.

North Face is a pretty preppy brand.

Pretty middle of the road here.

Surprised no one's wearing SuperDry.

President Coolidge came down in a railroad train
With a little fat man with a note-pad in his hand
The President say, "Little fat man isn't it a shame what the river has done
To this poor crackers land."

North Face is a pretty preppy brand.

Not compared to Barbour.

Farage in the full-on country check and tweed was hilarious.

No one had told him he was going to go state at floods that weekend.

I have a Barbour jacket AND a peacoat. 

North Face is mostly worn by rich white girls isn't it?

And Nick Clegg. Which makes an alarming amount of sense.

Apparently Ed Miliband's sticking with his 'stare voters into submission' strategy:


As someone said on Twitter, this photo looks either pre-coital or pre-stabbing.
