Prescott Pulls Out

A correspondent tells me John Prescott has pulled out (if you'll pardon the expression) of Andrew Marr's Sunday AM programme to be replaced by Gordon Brown. Surely not more Sunday revelations to come?

UPDATE 4.16pm Very glad the Press Association has caught up with this story - a mere 5 hours late...

Perhaps No Jobs, as the Mirror describes him, is trying to work out to whom he is accountable for all the tax-payers' money he will continue to receive.

Perhaps he's just adjusting to his new hands-off role.

I thought the post was going to be about Two Shag's sexual practices when I saw the headline, you've disappointed me.

According to a full page advert in todays Daily Mail there will be 'a couple of little things about the DPM she was too bizi (sic)to mention last week' in tomorrows MOS. The Tracey Temple Diaries.

Surely it's because they want to avoid prolonged questioning about the fact he's being paid from the public purse for doing sod all!

Or is Gordon going to make his move?

Hey - can someone explain to me why Jack Straw got it in the neck? I don't understand this at all.

Anon,

See Iain's post below this one. But to put it succinctly - Blair's lost the plot.

He's shuffling a bunch of non-entities and incompetents in increasingly desperate attempts to find a combination that will keep him in office and at least give the semblance of a functioning government.

Think Fuehrer Bunker c late April 1945
