On Monday, UK foreign secretary Ed Miliband told the Labour Party conference in Liverpool, to applause, that critics of the UK's support were right. His remarks came a day after Merseyside Police arrested more than 150 people outside the conference venue for holding signs, drawing criticism of the police response.
Why now: The contrast between Miliband's conciliatory words and mass arrests of protesters outside the conference is drawing attention.
