Inside Ed Miliband’s search for redemption – POLITICO

LONDON — For months, Ed Miliband has been Andy Burnham’s most powerful and most useful friend in Westminster.  

Now, as Burnham readies himself to enter Downing Street on Monday, what to do with Miliband might be his biggest dilemma.  

More than a decade after Miliband, then Labour leader, suffered a bruising defeat at the U.K.’s 2015 general election, he has emerged as a kingmaker in Burnham’s rush to power — and is now looking to trade up from his current role as energy secretary to something bigger under Burnham.
