But The Independent on Sunday has learnt that Mr Brown has accepted that his old rival should be in pole position for the appointment, on the basis that Britain needs to have a key figure in the architecture of the "new world order".
A senior British official said: "He [Brown] will have to swallow hard to sit down in meetings once again with Blair. But he accepts that there needs to be someone from the UK in the new global architecture. There is no opposition to the plan. Things have moved on, people have moved on."

There certainly is opposition to this plan from the people of the United Kingdom and the rest of the European Union.
There is a European Union wide petition website opposed to such an insulting nomination
currently with over 27,000 signatures.
The petition against Bliar becoming like Mandy and Pru an unelected leader,only for him its the position of El Presidento,is gathering pace.

how this lying feather nesting man and his odious wife could be nominated for any political office, is beyond belief. he should be investigated into his ill gotten gains, and subsequently tried by the courts.
