There's this idea going around that Gordon Brown is either (depending on your political prejudices) a) the demon king ripping off his mask of benevolence and revealing his horns or b) the long-lost True King who had hidden in the heart of the enemy from whence he springs to lead us to the true Jerusalem....
Me, I just think he's making it up as he goes along.
And I wonder what the government line at the next election will be?
"We may have gone along with all the Tory policies that lead up to this point but you can trust us more than you can them to put it right!"
Which is bizzare and unbelievable (though true) expect that the Tories can do nothing but shout "It's their fault! Trust us! Forget that David Cameron was pushing sub-prime mortgages as a Good Thing just a short while ago..."
I'm expecting any day now to step out of the shower and be told that everything since 1979 has been a hideous dream and I'm now in my twenties again... (An aging git can hope...)
