The beginning

28 Jun 2007 - JG

In the beginning there was Gordon. Forget about everything else, it never really happened. It was all a bad dream. Gordon is nothing like Blair and never believed a word he said. Now is the time for change. From now on we are New New Labour (a bit like a Gillette razor, when the marketing for two blades slows down, add another blade - by the time Miliband takes over the Labour party it will New, new, new Labour). “Change” was most definitely the buzz word from yesterday. Brown said it so many times it started to sound clumsy. So is this an admission that the last ten years were a mistake and they got it all wrong? Surely not! Brown was virtually running the country while Blair paraded around the world. Miliband, Johnson, Straw and the other big names that are about to receive top jobs were all the key players in the Blairite years too. So if you all played such a key role and believed in New Labour and the Blair (and Brown) mission, why the need for change? This isn’t a PR job is it? A bit of spin that New New Labour don’t spin?
