A Conversation with David Miliband

Speaker: David Miliband, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs and Member of Parliament for South Shields, United Kingdom

Presider: Fareed Zakaria, Editor, Newsweek International

British Foreign Secretary David Miliband told an audience of Council on Foreign Relations members and reporters on Friday that opportunities for the West to have an impact on the world's diplomatic agenda must be seized now or global power shifts will make them impossible. The next U.S. president, Milliband said, will be the last one who can work with the European Union to set "an inclusive global agenda including the rising powers." Eight years from now, he said, "it's easy to imagine that it will be practically impossible."

There's unjustified hype generated about those charming Milibands without there being a shred of evidence either politicking sibling is appropriate as Labour leader. Have you noticed how the right wing media is inveigling us all toward the bruvs with patronising blurb? Because, right wingers would hate that strong independent characters with potent socialist fight in their guts of the ilk of bullish Ed Balls or huntress Diane Abbott were voted instead over them ikky 'gemini Milibands'.
