What OF Gordon ?

Telegraph: Has a fun article of what ex UK PM Gordon Brown can do with his time since he has lot of it on his hands, since losing the General Election. But on a more serious side Mr Brown should consider writing a full story of New Labour, the whole truth warts and all, at the end of the day it will allow him to settle scores, set a agenda for future historians, get his spin out of his time in 10 Downing Street. The Diaries and the memories will start hitting the book shelf's with the next few months, Mr Brown should not wait for three years, time is book sales can go fast, one can argue that Mr Blair has left it to long, when one thinks about Tony Blair its a noun, and that is Iraq. But Mr Blair can argue with some justification that his time in power reformed the UK system, the Parliament in Scotland, the Senate in Wales, the destruction of the left of the Labour Party, okay he shares that with Lady Thatcher. Thus Mr Brown get that pen out and start to write, history gives you a short time to define your history.
