I don't suppose the young Gordon Brown went into politics so that one day he could stand up in front of an audience of money-men and announce that Britain needed to retain its independent nuclear deterrent.

I guess he thinks he needs to make these compromises in order to appear electable to the frightened mush-heads of Middle England.

But in the process he's turning himself into everything he once hated and despised.

There's a verse in the New Testament that explicitly addresses this situation; "For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world but lose his own soul?"

It seems we can have any kind of government we like in this country just so long as it's a right wing one.
