Sometime tomorrow Tony Blair will eventually let go of the door handle at 10 Downing Street and give the keys to his lifelong mate Gordon.
blair
And off he'll trot with his little wheely suitcase or spotted hankie on a stick, to the Westminster tube station or maybe catch a routemaster to Islington with the kids and Cherie (looking forlorn- as ever) in tow.

And another era will begin. Gordon will select his cabinet of "all the people".

Why did he talk to Pady Pantsdown? No idea is the short answer. Far better people around than Paddy Pantsdown.
