<p>Ed Miliband has set out plans for a major policy review and party revamp to Labour MPs and peers.</p>
<p>The party leader addressed the weekly meeting of the parliamentary party as an opinion poll showed Labour moving into a two-point lead over the Conservatives.</p>
<p>On his return from two weeks&#8217; paternity leave which have seen murmurings about his leadership, Mr Miliband repeated warnings that the party faces a &#8220;long haul&#8221; to regain power.</p>
<p>His spokeswoman insisted that there was no dissent among those present at the behind-closed-doors gathering in the Commons and played down differences over policy within his top team.</p>
<p>Mr Miliband told them Labour had &#8220;lost touch with the hopes and dreams&#8221; of voters and had failed properly to adapt itself since the creation of New Labour in the mid-1990s.</p>
<p>A commission on Labour&#8217;s organisation, under shadow Welsh secretary Peter Hain, will be launched at the weekend and will include an examination of the influence of the trade unions.</p>
<p>There is also to be a policy review starting with &#8220;a blank page&#8221;, with shadow cabinet ministers leading working groups including outside experts in their relevant fields.</p>
<p>In what was said by party sources to have been one of the best-received passages, Mr Miliband said: &#8220;You see the Tories and the Liberal Democrats doing terrible things and it is frustrating. But opposition is about the long-haul and digging in.&#8221;</p>
<p>He said rising membership levels and good local by-election results meant Labour should be &#8220;optimistic but not complacent&#8221; about the future.</p>
