Talk:Ralph Miliband

message: [As Adolphe Miliband, he was born in Brussels of Polish-Jewish émigré parents. Both his parents lived in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw, before his father, Samuel Miliband, joined the Red Army in the Polish–Soviet War.[1][2] He is buried in Highgate Cemetery close to Karl Marx and many celebrated left-leaning minds of the 20th Century.]
Who is buried in Highgate Cemetery, Ralph or Samuel? Intelligent Mr Toad (talk) 05:17, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: If it is Samuel it is hardly necessary to mention it; if Ralph the statement would preferably follow his own death.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 16:16, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  He or his father? 

message: Where does the quote - "The sadness of some of Ralph's circle at Ed and David's divergence from their father is considerable." come from?
I saw no reference to it in the article it was linking to.

replies: text: It's in the second part of the article. That could be made clearer, or the quote, which is given without any context whatsoever, could be removed completely. – Hysteria18 (Talk • Contributions) 14:50, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

I've not read the biography myself, but this section of the wiki-article did seem like a hit-job when I first read it, and then I stumbled upon this article by the author of the biography claiming that the quotes have been used misleadingly out of context by the Mail. I'd vote for removing them, but don't want to jump in and do so without being better informed, and do not have time to look into or join any real discussion on this. Best of luck to anyone who tries to improve this article!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.215.64 (talk) 18:46, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

message: As a Marxist, Miliband has been proven wrong by history. Did he repent of his Marxism in later life?Royalcourtier (talk) 04:41, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: His last book, of 1994, might be enlightening. The title implies that he knew Marxism had little support at that time.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by PrinceMilliband (talk • contribs) 08:52, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
