Miliband lays out plan to get Labour back into power

NEW opposition leader Ed Miliband laid out his comeback plan yesterday, promising he would learn from a humbling election defeat, the economic downturn and the divisive war in Iraq to guide the Labour Party back to power in Britain.

The 40-year-old, who narrowly defeated his brother David to win the post, has pledged to overhaul the party’s pro-business, Washington-friendly platform and to strike a humbler tone than predecessors Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.

Speaking to the party’s annual conference in Manchester, Miliband said he would heed the mistakes that led to Labour’s ouster in May’s national election after 13 years in office.
