Continuity New Labour

Martina Purdy Martina Purdy | 13:53 UK time, Tuesday, 5 August 2008

Tony Blair seems to have picked up a few new words as one of the key players in the peace process. His secret memo attacking the Gordon Brown (GB) strategy, leaked to a Sunday newspaper, contains the following sentence as he complains bitterly about his successor distancing himself from the Blair record.

He wrote: "The choice is and was always between GB (Gordon Brown) running as the change candidate or as continuity NL (New Labour)."

Was that reference to "continuity" - corrected in some newspapers to read "continuing" - a hangover from his security briefing. What's next Real Labour?
