David Miliband has criticised the Daily Mail’s attacks on his late father, calling the coverage “hateful”.
The former foreign secretary, who is now based in New York as CEO of the International Rescue Committee, told Channel Four News: “It is hateful when you have your father traduced in that way. There is no question about that.
“But I also have a very strong feeling that the good sense of the British people is to sort out that kind of tarring of someone from the truth.”
The older brother of Labour leader Ed Miliband said he hoped “the right lessons are learned” following Geoffrey Levy’s scathing article on Ralph Miliband in the Daily Mail earlier this month.
