Today in Focus · Ed Stone to elder statesman: the making of Ed Miliband · 11 Sep 2026 podcast

Except it wasn't the only Miliban making political waves. voice-verified

Heather, can you tell me about his brother David and where the relationship between the two ended up? voice-verified

Mm. voice-verified

So Ed Miniban wins that battle, he becomes Labour leader, but it didn't go brilliantly. voice-verified

And lots of us will remember the gaffes rather than the direction that he wanted to take the party in. voice-verified

Heather, what did Ed want to achieve and how did it all go wrong? voice-verified

wasn't he? voice-verified

He was voice-verified

then there was the fated Ed Stone. voice-verified

And yet Heather, you know, Ed did work consistently on the energy and climate brief for a long time and voice-verified

by some was considered so effective at that that even the successive Tory government didn't actually rip up all the work and start again, but, you know, pursued net zero as a government priority. voice-verified

In that period on the backbenches, I guess is when we saw the beginning of Ed two point oh, the relaxed rebrand. voice-verified

Can you tell me about that? voice-verified

definitely before your Alistair Campbell's and your Roy Stewart's and the stuff. voice-verified

Yeah, voice-verified

And so effectively became much more relaxed, better communicator, and then, you know, he comes back as Cabinet Minister for Energy, Climate, Net Zero, Understarmer. voice-verified

How did he operate and how did he get what he wanted done? voice-verified

knew had he knew which levers to pull. voice-verified

And as a result of that, he was really being talked up as the front runner to be the new Chancellor under an Andy Burnham government. voice-verified
