Anthony Barnett (London, OK): James Graham tagged me in his response to Matt Wardman's interesting meme on what Gordon Brown should do when he becomes PM. I'm happy to respond as well:
*2 things Gordon Brown should be proud of.
- Trying to end child poverty
- The way he gave independence for the bank of England
* 2 things he should apologise for.
- Supporting the Iraq war
- PFI on schools and the London tube
* 2 things that he should do immediately when he becomes PM.
- Withdraw from Iraq
- Call for a democratic constitutional settlement
*2 things he should do while he is PM.
- Ensure a united Europe opposes a US attack on Iran
- Allow us to vote for a democratic settlement he does not like, to replace our centralised ‘empire state'.
I'm also supposed to tag eight other bloggers, who are (in no particular order) Caspar Henderson, Becky Hogge, Pat Kane, Tom Griffin, Slugger O'Toole, Glyn Davies, Tom Waterhouse and Caroline Hunt.
