David Miliband's Journey, From Foreign Secretary To Resigning As MP

    So Miliband has quit as an MP. But not before we managed to get some fantastic photos of him, including the other jobs he tried before deciding to move to New York.

    Former foreign secretary David Miliband is to resign as an MP.

    1. He did have some good times in the former Labour Party cabinet.

    2. There was that time that Hilary came to town.

    3. And Condoleezza Rice, too.

    4. He met Sarah Brown once.

    And only once.

    5. He couldn't do much to hide his lack of enthusiasm when Gordon Brown took over from Blair.

    6. In fact, he ate a lemon immediately afterwards.

    7. And ate a banana for good measure.

    8. And some ice cream.

    9. He tried to become leader of the opposition but lost to the guy falling off his chair in the back.

    10. Things started to get awkward.

    11. Then two months ago, he was introduced as "the man who could have been the leader of the opposition, if he hadn't been beaten by his brother."

    Look at the gulp after Cathy Newman introduced him.

    12. Fatigue started to set in.

    13. Now he says he's off to New York to head the International Rescue Committee.

    14. He tried working in a kebab shop too.

    15. He heard Roy Hodgson was having some difficulty finding an England keeper.

    16. He also did some work experience in a factory, but it wasn't for him.

    17. He even tried being a bartender.

    18. That didn't work out, so he filled in as a temporary teacher.

    19. He tried one last job, as a model, before he decided to move to New York.

    20. But it is time, he gestures, to leave Britain.

    21. And boy will he be missed.
