Gordon Brown moves out of Blair shadow

After ten years of spin and triangulation, the Gordon Brown era is starting off on a much different note. Though he is still holding firm on Iraq, for now, he is shaking things up with a new team who are less likely to be lapdogs for Bush and the neocons including one new minister who has previously sparred with former US ambassador John Bolton as well as the Poodle. Overall, a lot of new faces without the stench of Blair and his failures in foreign policy and submission to the Bush agenda.
