As of 12:30 update today:
Diane Abbott - 0 (no change)
Ed Balls - 7 (up 3)
Andy Burnham - 3 (up 2)
John McDonnell - 0 (no change)
David Miliband - 36 (up 17)
Ed Miliband - 39 (up 4)
So let's have a look at the nominating MPs again. Who else has plumped for Ed Balls?
Kevin Brennan - Gordon Brown's former Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Children, Young People and Families and then Parliamentary Secretary in The Cabinet Office alongside Shriti Vadera
Sharon Hodgson - Former Parliamentary Private Secretary to Liam Byrne in the Home Office, Bob Ainsworth at the Ministry of Defence and Dawn Primarolo at the Department of Health. Last year promoted to assistant Government Whip
John Robertson - A rebel on Iraq but also an MP who it is claimed has not paid the monies he was told to during the Expnses Scandal
Ed Balls has still not nominated himself and he has yet to get his wife, Yvette Cooper, to nominate him either.
Something of note in David Miliband's nominators, Valerie Vaz; yes Keith's sister is now an MP. I trust that she will not have similar career problems as her brother Keith "committed serious breaches of the Code of Conduct and showed contempt for the House" Vaz.
