Has Gordo found a way out?

The chatter on the blogs is that the exit of Baroness Vadera to a lowly position in the G20 (paving the way for South Korea to take over chairmanship) is a convenient way for Gordon Brown to resign and take up a post in the G20.

How true could it be? I don't know. There's two Gordon Brown traits which provide conflicting signals. The first is his tenacity, to hang in there when times get tough and come back for more. The second is to back out of a fight, and the next General Election will be the toughest of his life.

What do I believe to be the winning trait? His willingness to avoid a fight, he's done it time and time again - but will he want to go down as the biggest cowardly PM in history? I don't think so, but who knows...

Squiffy.
