Musical Chairs

The reshuffle moves on through the rumour mill, with both Patricia Hewitt and Margaret Beckett moving at least out of their current roles, although there is no confirmation yet whether or not they will be moving to another job in government or out of it entirely. I expect that at least one of them will no longer be in the Cabinet after Brown’s reshuffle, and I wouldn’t be overly surprised if both of them were sacked.

Rumours flying around seem to predict that Miliband may become Foreign Secretary, Straw Justice Secretary (and maybe DPM), and Darling to be Chancellor… How correct are they? We will find out eventually!

    Shouldn’t that be a rocking horse, rather than a rocking chair?

    Miliband is Foreign secretary and Darling is Chancellor

    Was this leaked to you?

    No, I just read other blogs!

    The Spectator Blog was especially good for it.
