Labour needs to move on from 'psychodramas' of past - Ed Miliband

Mr Miliband said that the Labour party had to move on from the "psychodramas" of the past, but insisted that the party did not fail at the general election simply because of personalities.

"I think one of the lessons for Labour is that we do need to move on, we need to move on from some of the psychodramas of the past, some of the factionalism that there was.

"But I think that there's a deeper lesson, which is that if any of us think that we lost the elecltion because of personalities, we are profoundly wrong - there are big issues for us to face up to," he said.

"We began as the party of the windfall tax on the privatised utilities and the minimum wage in 1997, we ended - despite doing great things - as the party that was defending bank bonuses and a party that was pushing forward ID cards."

May elections

Mr Miliband predicted that the Liberal Democrats would get a "hiding" in the local election in Sheffield in May next year because of Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg's "betrayal" of the city.

"I think the May elections are absolutely crucial...I was in Sheffield last week, and I think that Nick Clegg is going to get a real hiding in Sheffield because I think people think that he's kind of started off his betrayal by betraying that city."
