Appearances
Ed Miliband, David Miliband, Andy Burnham.
Where are Ed Balls and Diane Abbott?
You just need them for the complete set.
David Cameron did.
And the UK is hosting, just by a quirk of the rotation, the G20 next year and the G7 the year after that.
Those are massive moments for the UK on the world stage.
So the Prime Minister, whoever that may be at that point, is going to want a really savvy, experienced and influential team around them to handle that sort of two years of summit.
He has a traditionalist, small season conservative streak.
We're wearing the same clothes.
I'm criticising myself, not you, Paddy, when I say Andy Burnham should not take fashion advice.
You and me.
It is brutal human drama.
And as we were discussing on Radio 4 earlier, Paddy, this is a prime minister, a man, whose professional life has been one of constant achievement at every turn.
He gets mocked for the son of a toolmaker thing, but the point he was really trying to make is, though I'm a knight of the British Empire,
though I'm a former director of public prosecutions, I didn't start off posh.
That's really the point he's been trying to make, is that he's clawed his way up to the pinnacle of the British establishment as prime minister, won an extraordinary general election victory five years after Labour's worst defeat.
And then within two years, this is happening to him.
It is extraordinary and public personal and professional failure.
And that is a brutal thing for him to happen to him and also on his family.
I think he, though he is very protective of his family.
