EU relations, climate crisis and Gaza: why Ed Miliband is fired up by Foreign Office challenges
The Guardian · conflict · Gaza · August 1, 2026
Labour veteran is said to relish role that requires careful negotiation of Trump and impending G20 leadership Extraordinarily, given the importance of geopolitics, the office of foreign secretary has sometimes appeared a consolation prize in British politics, perhaps reflecting the transfer of responsibility to

"Ed has an immense appetite to get things done and is relishing being in this job," one says. "Ed will be a policy-driven foreign secretary.".

They have some, but very little.".
