Miliband Criticizes Labour's £30,000 Breakfast Offer for Business Leaders

Miliband emphasizes that Labour should avoid selling access to ministers, following reports of a costly breakfast meeting proposal.

Labour's commercial team proposed a £30,000 breakfast meeting with Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds, which he was unaware of and will not attend.
Ed Miliband, the Energy Secretary, has publicly urged Labour not to offer paid access to ministers again.
The controversy arises amid scrutiny over donations to Labour figures, including gifts returned by Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
A Labour spokesperson clarified that the Business Secretary was not involved in the proposed breakfast meeting.
Miliband highlighted the need for new guidelines on accepting donations, following recent incidents involving senior Labour officials.
