Anyone who has talked to Gordon Brown recently can sense his frustration. This is less to do with his and Labour's low ratings, despite complaints about 24-hour media pressures, than with his inability to make things better for most people.

For a Prime Minister who seems to attract negative headlines, meeting a group of excited children at Downing Street must have felt like a welcome distraction. But Gordon Brown's attempt to finally produce some positive PR backfired today when he was ambushed by an eight-year-old boy. Little Charlie Doherty met the Prime Minister at Downing Street as a reward for being a finalist in a competition to...

I hear John Reid has been rallying to the Labour cause in Glasgow East. Despite his obvious (private) sense of "I told you so" about Gordon Brown's problems he has done his bit to stop a catastrophe in this Labour heartland. He has been canvassing outside Parkhead, the home of Celtic FC, which is a big part of this constituency. Reid, now free of the thrust of Cabinet life and almost daily Today programme...

The prime minister balances heart with head in his foreign policy GORDON BROWN is not a naturally emotive politician. That habitual reserve made this week's visit to Israel striking and intriguing. It featured an address to the Knesset, Israel's parliament, on July 21st--the first by a prime minister of the old mandate-era power. Mr Brown said that his father, a minister in the Church of Scotland,...

Should the SNP take Glasgow East, or come anywhere near it, then Kirkcaldy and Cowden Beath will not be a safe seat for the Leader any longer. Which constituency with a huge Labour majority is in line for its member of Parliament to be ennobled, and then awarded a Brown candidacy? Or are there already no safe seats left for Labour even before the Declaration?

When Prime Ministers are in deep trouble they tend to lose a sense of proportion. Big and small challenges merge into one seemingly unpassable mountain. Only when they step back from the daily frenzy do some of them get a clearer perspective.

Anyone catch the glorious one eye'd leader on pulling out troops from Iraq? We have 4100 in Iraq at this time: The Prime Minister, who visited Iraq at the weekend, acknowledged that the rate of reduction of British troop numbers was not as rapid as he had hoped. After previously offering optimistic targets for drawing down troops, Mr Brown was careful to not set specific timetables. So in short he...

During these turbulent economic times, Gordon Brown is keen for the country to stick by him. However, this probably wasn't quite what he had in mind.

Lord Desai came out today and said what we are all probably thinking about unelected PM Gordon Brown. That he is indecisive and weak. However he got the next bit wrong because he claimed that Gordon was put on earth to remind us how good Blair was and this is where I started to get angry. I want to make it perfectly clear from here that I think and have always thought that the whole New Labour exercise...
