Related: About this forumLOL - NAME FAIL: Mitt Romney CALLS Ed Miliband 'MR. LEADER'
The Independent:
"...Mr Leader? Did Mitt Romney forget Ed Miliband's name?.."
- ....Romney said: "Like you, Mr Leader, I look forward to our conversations this morning ... and recognise, of course, the unique relationship that exists between our nations, our commitment to common values, our commitment to peace in the world and our desire to see a stronger and growing economy."
Mr Romney had already been perilously close to offending his British hosts by questioning the preparedness of London for the Olympics.
Speaking to NBC news ahead of today's meetings Romney said, It's hard to know just how well it will turn out."

I forget what that usually means. If the hands are in an upward position it usually shows confidence but Milliband looks more like he is praying for Romney to stop babbling or he is just consciously trying to show confidence to mask his lack thereof.
Also, the word "leader" is english for Fuhrer.
