Pakistan and Parliament
It is no longer about Gordon, it about the labour party and, not to put not to fine a point on it they are just so finished.
The only way now to get rid of Gordon is to get rid of labour MPs, simple as that. So, they might as well keep the jamboree going and hope that something, anything, turns up.
In the meantime the situation in Afghanistan and Pakistan appears to deteriorate with every passing hour. As for Dafur, Chad/Cameroon and the Sudan! There must be an inquiry into Iraq, and parliament must be recalled about the situation in Pakistan, we must not allow our Special Forces to be caught up in the mire, not without parliament discussing it first, or does parliament not matter anymore.
Gordon Brown sets the agenda and he thought by going onto the economy attention would be diverted from the situation in Iraq and Afghanistan. Well, by diverting attention onto the economy he has chosen the wrong area. Nobody will forget that he was the Chancellor, still acts as though he is, instead still we have Alastair Darling, the fall guy, having to take the rap for what Gordon allowed to happen on his watch.
There will still have to be a cabinet reshuffle, but the problem is that when it happens he will have some very angry former cabinet members. Trouble is if he doesn't reshuffle then it will expose his very weakness because he knows there must be changes but he has no power to do anything. Too many skeletons in the cupboard?
