Re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
This government is going under, which would be deeply satisfying if the nation wasn't caught in the undertow.

Smug B*****d Quits Cabinet"James Purnell has stepped down from the cabinet and told Prime Minister Gordon Brown to "stand aside"
In a letter to the Sun and the Times, the work and pensions secretary said he was not seeking the leadership but wanted to trigger a debate.
Mr Purnell is the third cabinet member to announce in the past few days they are standing down from cabinet. "Purnell is the little git with the face you really want to hit btw......  Seems like they're lining up to kick Brown out. They've no-one to replace him that's the trouble. Headless Chickens.

The Resignation Letter. (He's really going for the PR angle here making this public too! - That or the turning of the knife angle!)
Dear Gordon,
We both love the Labour Party. I have worked for it for 20 years and you for far longer. We know we owe it everything and it owes us nothing.
I owe it to our party to say what I believe no matter how hard that may be. I now believe your continued leadership makes a Conservative victory more, not less likely.
That would be disastrous for our country. This moment calls for stronger regulation, an active state, better public services, an open democracy.
It calls for a government that measures itself by how it treats the poorest in society.
Those are our values, not David Cameron's.
We therefore owe it to our country to give it a real choice. We need to show that we are prepared to fight to be a credible government and have the courage to offer an alternative future.
I am therefore calling on you to stand aside to give our party a fighting chance of winning. As such I am resigning from government.
The party was here long before us, and we want it to be here long after we have gone. We must do the right thing by it.
I am not seeking the leadership, nor acting with anyone else. My actions are my own considered view, nothing more.
If the consensus is that you should continue, then I will support the government loyally from the backbenches. But I do believe that this question now needs to be put.
Thank you for giving me the privilege of serving.
Yours,
Rt Hon James Purnell MP
Hope he doesn't get another job, 'cos he was bloody useless at the one he had!
What!!!! Since he was 4!?
Not based on the way he looks, but the way he talks!
