The Power of Twitter..

On my timeline, much is being made by some people of this photograph of Ed Miliband. He is making a donation of 2p into the cup of someone begging in the street.

In the past, if such an image was taken, it would be up to a few media outlets as to whether the general public would get to see it. Nowadays, the power of social media ends this type of censorship by the "great and the good" and reduces the hiding room for those in power.
