Lazy sunny Sunday afternoon...
The heatwave is continuing here in Hull, so this is what I intend to do...
Meanwhile...
Gordon Brown is up Shit Creek, in a canoe, without a paddle. Perhaps, the best thing he can do now is a disappearing act in Panama? A sort of John Stonehouse meets John Darwin.
There is that old saying that the devil finds work for idle hands, given that those old kids are on Schools Out at Westminister, 6 weeks is a long time for the plotters to be jockeying for position.
Who could fill the cavity left by Brown? There's Young Gun, Foreign Secretary, David Miliband, versus The Old Dog, Justice Minister, Jack Straw.
There is already talk that Labour could be out of office not for one but at least two elections.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.

ReplyDeleteBut who is 'they', John? Iain Dale and his chums, or the chattering classes in Westminster with sod all left to write about while their MP chums play on the beach in the South of France, or the bloke in the public bar of a boozer in Hull?
Go on, tell me... if 'they' are saying this, and you are coming over all BBC on us and repeating tittle-tattle as if it were real news... who are 'they'?
Yep - leave Gordo in there.
ReplyDeleteBob: I think "they" is all the political commentators in Monday morning's papers.
