Just as he did last week, Prime Minister Gordon Brown has avoided difficult questions from David Cameron (this time on Northern Rock) by asking him a question. Surely the Speaker can’t hold this in order for much longer? It is, after all, Questions to the Prime Minister, not to the Opposition’s Questions. As well as undermining government accountability, the PM’s defensive approach just makes it seem like Labour is constantly on the backfoot and unable to lead the country. Given his obvious cowardice, hopefully it won’t be too long before Gordon Brown is the one asking the Prime Minister the questions.
