Full of new revelations. How can Brown survive all this?
+++
First Secretary of State and Lord President of the Council, the Baron Mandelson, of Foy in the county of Herefordshire and Hartlepool in the county of Durham (aka, the next PM) penned a devastating critique of Gordon Brown’s character, labelling him “insecure”, “self-conscious” and “angry”, according to leaked e-mails..
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6446325.ece
“Last night there were signs that the revolt by women ministers was widening. Bridget Prentice, the justice minister, and Jane Kennedy, the environment minister, are understood to be considering their futures.”
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6446324.ece
“Purnell fury at ‘betrayal’ by David Miliband over call for PM to quit”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1191312/James-Purnells-fury-betrayal-David-Miliband-Brown-go.html
Balls and Mandelson are at each other’s throats:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6446324.ece
...Then we have the euro election results in the evening.
Time to get the popcorn in! ;) ;D

By ignoring it. He seems to honestly believe that he is the only person who can "lead the country through this" so he shoves his head in the sand and assumes it'll all go away.

I didn't know a member of the House of Lords could still be the PM. Wouldn't he have to give up his peerage as "Lords" are not allowed into The House of Westminster?

In 1890 Lord Salisbury was Prime Minister. Be afraid, be very afraid! ;)

Have not read the link but must point out that

I copied and pasted that bit ( :-[ ). I bow to your superior knowledge of the area. My geographical knowledge gets hazy just North of Milton Keynes. :P ;)
Monkeys? :-? :-?

I just re-checked Mandy's official title (as at 2008) and it is indeed "Baron Mandelson of Foy in the county of Herefordshire and Hartlepool in the county of Durham".

Had a quick look, can't see where it says that. However, Hartlepool, is a Unitary Authority, as is Stockton, Middlesborough and Redcar, who were all formally known as Cleveland, and prior to that Teesside. However in the olden days Stockton and Hartlepool were part of Durham and Middlesbrough, Yarm (part of Stockton, but south of the Tees) and Redcar were in North Yorkshire. People of Yarm still argue they still should be.

By ignoring it. He seems to honestly believe that he is the only person who can "lead the country through this" so he shoves his head in the sand and assumes it'll all go away.
Fact of the matter is, nobody is leading the country through anything because the govertnment is finished.

By ignoring it.
Correct Kevin and because the majority on the front bench are gutless self-seeking incompetents, he will continue to do so.
Fact of the matter is, nobody is leading the country through anything
Nor have they been for some considerable time. The result has been a country left to fester from an open wound from which there with be no immediate recovery.
They have destroyed the credibility of government and of the official cadre, a tawdry, useless, partisan, totalitarian, manipulative, slimy and utterly unpleasant legislature if ever there was one.

Did you see him this morning Lance on the BBC's Andrew Marr programme this morning? Talk about an animal in a trap fighting for it's, and Gordon Brown's life! Even disputed / strongly argued with Andrew Marr (insults included) that MP's, especially the female ones, had left the Cabinet due to GB's style and content of leadership :o :o :o
Mandelson's certainly nailed his flag to the mast! ::) ::) ::)

Diane Abbott nailed it when she said - if you're only friend when you wake up in the morning is Peter Mandelson - then you're in trouble :o :o
he's a slippery little snake Mandy - no conviction, just sides with whoever will give him power - wouldn't trust as far as i could throw him - was surprised Brown let him back in as they clearly hate each other.....maybe that old adage the enemy of my enemy is my friend holds true here - neither want tory rule :y
