LONDON -- You might be surprised given his recent selfie-fest with a hen party and the way he tears into a bacon sandwich, but Ed Miliband doesn't know what YOLO means.
He was quizzed about the acronym, which of course means "you only live once", by Time Out in an interview ahead of the general election.
"Do you what YOLO means?" he was asked by the magazine. "No, what does it mean?" he replied, adding once he'd had it explained to him: "Is that right? That is a good philosophy for politics! It's about a sense of adventure and doing what you want."
He was then asked to not adopt the phrase going forward.

The exchange begs the question: If Ed's taking YOLO, what does that leave the others? Nick Clegg must be suffering from serious FOMO following last week's debate and we wouldn't be surprised to hear David Cameron mutter FML in the wake of the SNP's manifesto launch, which probably leaves Nigel Farage with LMFAO.
