Ed Miliband operated for fractured wrist

British Labour Party leader Ed Miliband has undergone a surgery for a broken wrist 10 days after injuring it.
A spokesman said Miliband, 43, suffered the injury while walking on a coastal path in Devon with wife Justine when he fell, hitting his left wrist on a rock.
However, it was only when he attended the accident and emergency unit at University College Hospital here on Friday as the pain in his wrist was not subsiding that an X-ray revealed he had suffered a fracture.
On doctor's advice, he returned to the hospital yesterday for a minor operation to re-set the wrist.

He is now back home with his family and the injury will not affect his attendance at the funeral of Baroness Thatcher on Wednesday.
It is understood that he required painkillers when he delivered his tribute to the former prime minister in the Commons last week.
After the operation, Miliband tweeted: "Thanks to all of the brilliant, friendly, dedicated staff today at University College hospital who helped treat my broken wrist #lovetheNHS.
