Say goodbye to the Poodle and hello to Gordon Brown

OUT

this is coming quick... it sounds like he must be just one step ahead of the law...

British Prime Minister Tony Blair will step down on May 9th, reports the Sunday Mail.

The decision, according to the paper, was made to preempt any charges made in the "cash for honors" scandal.

"That will trigger a seven-week leadership election process in the Labour Party and a new PM - probably Gordon Brown - will move into 10 Downing Street at the end of June," writes Rob Gibson.

gordon brown is a pretty big guy, physically... i can't quite feature him sitting in george's lap...
