By Tom McTague, Deputy Political Editor for MailOnline Ed Miliband today publicly snubbed Gordon Brown after thanking every Labour MP who campaigned against Scottish independence – apart from the former Labour leader. Mr Miliband made an impromptu speech at the Labour Party conference to hail the efforts of those who defeated Alex Salmond last week. He welcomed onto the stage in Manchester a host of MPs while heaping praise on Labour activists and trade unionists who campaigned for the ‘No’ to independence group. But Mr Miliband pointedly failed to mention the former Prime Minister, whose intervention has been credited with helping to shore up leaking support for the Union in the final weeks of the campaign.
