Anyone think Gordon Brown will be any different? Do the words 'new', teach', 'old', 'tricks', 'dog' form part of a well known phrase?

Yes, I think it goes "you cannot dog tricks old or new teach"

I don't normally buy a Sunday paper, but certainly bought The Independent yesterday. Blair was certainly planning to scupper Brown's career in 2005. But then the pope died and that caused a rethink.

I haven't read the article in depth, but I really can't see why the death of the Polish pope should have weakened Blair in the run-up to a General Election. Can anybody throw any light on this?

Surprise, feckin' surprise!!

Brown takes over today as Labour leader.

Deputy leader is elected as well. It traditionally an idiot, so it must be Peter Hain.
