Brown's Cabinet...

[Filuwaúrdjan]

The two Ed's (Balls and Miliband) would be dead certs to get cabinet jobs IMO, as would Douglas Alexander.
Nick Brown would probably be back. Straw and Kelly could get promoted. Brown's been co-operating with the old Right of the Party (Prescott et al) a fair bit recently, so I'd suspect Johnson might get promoted again.

Cook no; him and Brown don't get on very well for reasons no one apart from them understand. Dobbo... not sure, although it'd be a possibility.

I think Blunkett might stay in the cabinet; he's not too strongly tied to anyone except himself and seeing as he's the most popular politician on council estates he's a huge electoral asset (which is why Blair brought him back).

I'd like to see Clywd get a job.

Darling would undoubtedly get one of the jobs in the top three since his Brown's Chief Lieutenant.

You mean the badger? True. I forgot him.

Apparently, Reid is likely to get the "Castle treatment"...

Maybe not. Blair has tried to fire McCartney on several occasions but he's still there. He has powerful friends; namely John Prescott, the Old Right generally and the Unions. Brown needs to be very nice to the last two especially.
