Speculations are rife within political circles that former Foreign Secretary David Miliband is being considered for the role of Britain's ambassador to the United States. Insiders suggest that Sir Keir Starmer, the current leader of the Labour Party, is contemplating the appointment but will hold off on any official announcement until after the next US President is elected and inaugurated in January.
Shock return to the Labour inner circle
If the rumors are true, it would mark a surprising comeback for David Miliband within the Labour Party's inner circle. Despite famously losing out to his younger brother Ed Miliband in the race for the party leadership, David's extensive experience as a former foreign secretary and his current role as president of the International Rescue Committee make him a compelling candidate for the prestigious diplomatic post.
Family ties and political history
David's potential appointment as the UK ambassador to the US would bring him back into the spotlight of UK politics, especially given his past rift with his brother Ed during the leadership battle in 2010. While David has since stepped away from his role as a Member of Parliament and immersed himself in humanitarian work in the US, his return to a prominent diplomatic position would be a significant development.
On the other hand, Ed Miliband has continued his political career and currently serves as Labour's Energy Security and Net Zero Minister, adding an intriguing dynamic to the brothers' respective roles within the party.
