  "account": "David Wright Miliband, born on 15 July 1965, is the younger sibling of British Labour Party politician Ed Miliband. The two were raised in a politically active household in north London, notably Primrose Hill, where they were immersed in discussions about left-wing politics and social justice. Their parents, Ralph Miliband and Marion Kozak, were both academics and human rights campaigners, with Ralph having fled Nazi-occupied Belgium and Marion having survived the Holocaust. David and Ed attended the same state comprehensive school in north London and later studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford University. David entered politics earlier than Ed, serving as a researcher for various Labour figures before becoming a special adviser to Gordon Brown. He held significant roles in the British government, including Foreign Secretary, and later became president and chief executive of the International Rescue Committee. David and Ed's political paths diverged, with Ed aligning more closely with Gordon Brown and David with Tony Blair. The brothers' relationship gained public attention during the 2010 Labour leadership contest, which Ed won, narrowly defeating David. David subsequently left British politics and now works with the International Rescue Committee, while Ed has had a distinguished career in government, serving as Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, Energy and Net Zero, and most recently, Foreign Secretary.",
