Despite early attempts to minimize the matter, the conversation between the PM and the health minister according to sources followed a different turn. The Prime Minister said sorry to Wes Streeting, reporters have been advised. The conversation was short, and they did not address Morgan McSweeney, whom Starmer is now under increasing scrutiny to remove. Miliband's Response In his morning broadcast appearances, Miliband highlighted the need for the Labour Party to concentrate on national matters rather than internal disputes. Clearly, I think the backgrounding has been bad, certainly. But my call to the party today is quite simple, which is we need to concentrate on the country, not each other. We were given a historic election win last summer, a historic chance to change our nation. And we have a major responsibility.
