Zac Goldsmith backs Ed Miliband on responsible capitalism
The influential Tory MP Zac Goldsmith has offered a ringing endorsement of Ed Miliband's call for capitalism to be transformed in the wake of the financial crisis.
Goldsmith, who has acted as an adviser to David Cameron on environmental issues, praised Miliband's autumn conference rhetoric in which he distinguished between "producers" and "predators".
"I think Ed Miliband was right to raise this and right to use the language he used … He was flirting with a very important issue," Goldsmith told an audience at the Guardian's Open Weekend in King's Cross on Saturday. "I don't think my own party, or the Liberal Democrats, have begun to address this issue," he said, adding that the Conservatives had instead focused on narrow issues such as bankers' bonuses.
