On Saturday it was Cherie talking about what went on behind the scenes during the Blair / Brown era, today it is John Prescott. The result: more bad headlines for Brown.
Interestingly, Prescott comes down heavily on Brown’s side–“I have no doubt that Tony was most to blame. He broke his agreement with Gordon, not once but several times”—but with Blair having left the scene, the criticisms of Brown for being moody and difficult to work with receive top billing. The Sunday Times splashes with the headline, “I told Tony to sack Gordon, says Prescott.”
