Its good to see Ed Miliband taking up the UK's World Bank seat himself (rather than leave it to a junior minister).

But as well as focussing on development & the climate, he will need to make the argument that the UK's international profile not only needs repairing, but a better global reputation may well help deliver Andy Burnham's domestic agenda;

its not an impossible argument to make, but will be harder in face of a myopic & parochial media!

@ChrisMayLA6 Bring the 'Chaos' Ed!

And by that I mean 'sound ethical policy that recognises the effect Climate Change has on everything'

CHAOS!
