1. yes. well, its certainly a brassica leaf and therefore edible...not sure which kind or whether its a cross but definitely edible.
2. Doesn't look like a predator so remove it and the eggs. -
Agreed brassica. It looks like blackfly to me. And the eggs - probably one of the cabbage whites. From memory one lays in clusters the other individually.Comment

They're not cabbage white eggs. These ones are grey whilst Cabbage white eggs are cream coloured.Originally posted by WendyC View Post
Anyway, there was a little fly standing over every little cluster of eggs as if it was it's own.Comment

Hard to see from the picture but maybe they are moth eggs, from one of the Noctuids, maybe Cabbage Moth
I don't think they are the eggs of that little insect.Comment
