Ever since the Daily Mail did a hatchet job on Ed Miliband's dad, folks have condemned the paper for doing so.
This list includes:
the Prime Minister
the Deputy Prime Minister
Lord Heseltine
Charles Moore, the former editor of the Daily Telegraph
plus many Tory MPs and other newspapers
But look what Michael "Shiney Face" Gove said, "… the Daily Mail should not apologise to Labour leader Ed Miliband for a story criticising his father."
What a git that man is. Plus he is universally hated by the majority of people involved in Education.
I also read that some of the accusations made by the Mail were from Miliband senior when he was 17! When I was 17 I thought the Cons seemed like a good political party and that cabbage was the food of Satan - but I grew up.

Really is gutter stuff, don't think they would like their parent/s to be dragged through it like this.
17 - now from what I remember I wore op-art clothes, thick black dusty springfield eye liner and rode pillion on my latest b/f motor bike --- mmmm doesn't bare thinking about for that to be 'me' now ;D
If the Daily Mail were half decent they would acknowledge they were wrong in that report and aplologise

Unsurprising that Miliband Snr wasn't popular with a newspaper that supported the fascists in the 1930's whose owner was a pal of Hitler. Don't suppose they need reminding that Communist Russia was on our side in the was fighting Fascists. So who was enemy of this country Miliband or Rothermere?
In the 1930s Rothermere used his newspapers to try to influence British politics, notably being a strong supporter of appeasement towards Nazi Germany In the 1930s, he urged increased defence spending by Britain; his were the only major newspapers to advocate an alliance with Germany. For a time in 1934, the Rothermere papers championed the British Union of Fascists (BUF), and were again the only major papers that did so. Rothermere infamously wrote a Daily Mail editorial entitled "Hurrah for the Blackshirts", in January 1934, praising Oswald Mosley for his "sound, commonsense, Conservative doctrine"

Well said Slackly! Two faced Tory gits.

Before the Mail can apologise, the Tory who ordered the story would have to order the apology.

Have you actually seen what Cameron said?
From the Telegraph:
David Cameron admitted he had not read the orginal article nor Mr Miliband's response, but said: "All I know is that if anyone had a go at my father, I would want to respond very vigorously.
"There's not a day goes by that you don't think about your dad and all that he meant to you, so I completely understand why Ed would want to get his own point of view across."
So he wasn't necessarily against the story or the attack just saying that Milliband was within his rights to defend his dad

Interesting now that the mail are demanding apologies from various people over allegations that their attacks on Miliband senior were anti-semantic
