I'm with you. That vote was a stain, and no new position can wash it away. He's fooling nobody.

Miliband's track record is tainted with the blood of innocents. He should step down, not take up a human rights role.

Sceptical is an understatement. How can we trust anyone who failed our Syrian brothers and sisters so badly?

Funny how Western politicians get to reinvent themselves after voting for wars that kill Muslims. No credibility.

As a Muslim, it's hard to see past that betrayal. The ummah remembers, even if the West tries to move on.
