Ed Miliband admits Labour was wrong on Gaza
Original: ‘You were right’: Ed Miliband tells critics Labour was wrong on Gaza
Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband told Labour's conference that critics of the party's stance on Gaza 'were right', conceding Labour had been wrong. Speaking in Liverpool, he framed the admission as part of a broader message that the government is 'not here to accept the status quo but to change it'. The remarks mark a notable break from the party's earlier position during the conflict and come as debate over Britain's Gaza policy continues to divide Labour members and voters.
Why now: A senior cabinet minister publicly admitting his own party's error on a deeply divisive foreign policy issue is striking and reopens debate over Labour's Gaza record.
