One simple way to restore faith on the Government

... sack Darling and give Jack Straw the keys to No.11

But do not give them Ed Balls whatever you do. There too many rookies in the major positions right now and Ed Balls will be an even bigger disaster than Darling.

Straw as Chancellor would be a big name and go some way to repairing the damage the inexperienced and ineffective Secretaries have done. Blair and Brown were the giants of the last ten years, right now Labour need to repeat that and Brown and Straw is the best they can do.
