God why didn't Tony stay? We all know why, but it goes to show Brown wasn't ready to take over as PM? They are in serious trouble.

Will he get a peerage? Laughing

Never mind a peerage. What about a recall to being PM?

John Prescott also says in his memoirs that Tony Blair should have sacked Gordon Brown as Chancellor. Prescott describes Mr Brown as "annoying, bewildering and prickly. Also he adds that he brokered "hundreds" of reconciliation meetings and phone calls between Mr Brown and Mr Blair.

And he claims that the then chancellor of the exchequer kept money back from Tony Blair's "pet" projects in order to give himself more money to play with once he became prime minister.

This all shows in the local Elections now, but I can't see the Party getting rid of Brown at present?

Does anyone believe anything Cherie Blair says, I'm more and more convinced she's completely bonkers.
I was reading one of the extracts from her book in the times and I had to smile when she mentioned "Tony spends a lot of time abroad" Hmm, I wonder why Laughing
