13 years of this…….. 🙄 #edballsday https://t.co/XcZUDqy1jz
When I was really getting into politics, George Osborne and Ed Balls were political enemies shouting at each other across the despatch box. I quite like the fact we live in a country where they've actually become good friends since leaving Parliament

Happy #EdBallsDay to all who celebrate - & if you don't have a signed tweet, why on earth not?! They were quite the thing around the 3rd or 4th anniversary when retweets were only at about 35,000 ❤️
George Osborne really getting into the spirit of #EdBallsDay
Happy @edballs Day to those who celebrate! Can't believe either that this is still going strong after 13 years or that it is 13 years since the fateful tweet. It is probably one of the best things that Twitter has done.
