Under fire Brown revamps cabinet
In the wake of catastrophic local election results and the resignations yesterday of two more cabinet ministers – Geoff Hoon and John Hutton – Brown told reporters he never even considered resigning. Instead he announced a reshuffle that he hopes will help restore his fortunes.
“I have the determination to take this country through the most difficult of economic times, and this is what I am doing,” he said. “I will get on with the job and I will finish the work.”
