The lion shall lay down with the lamb

James Forsyth 10:24am

The BBC is reporting that in a rather unconvincing effort to foster the impression of party unity Blairite ultras Alan Milburn and Stephen Byers will nominate Brown for the Labour leadership. Who said the era of spin was dead?

Some, though, aren’t so keen to ignore the past. Conservative Home has produced a video to rain on Brown’s parade.

We’ll have analysis on Brown’s campaign launch throughout the day; apparently, the slogan will be “Brown for Britain.” We’ll also be keeping an eye on the race to be the next John Prescott. Word is that 2 of the 6 contenders are struggling to get the requisite 44 nominations.

This is much funnier: Gordon Brown picking his nose and eating his bogies:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwgTvM1DtQo

Churchill said "If Hitler invaded Hell I would make at at least a favourable reference to the Devil in the House of Commons". British politics don't change, they just become smaller and shoddier.

I think you will find the next Prescott will be Gordon Brown, though who will be deputy PM I'm not sure. Maybe a small twig.
