James Brown Becomes UK Prime Minister ; Man Got Soul ; Gordon Brown To Set Up Tribute Band

With Tony Blair to stand-down as UK Prime Minister this week, his deputy, Gordon Brown has just been made head of the Labour Party in preparation for his premiership later this week.

In his speech to the party in Manchester, the Deputy PM who many depict as quiet and brooding has said the party has to get soul.

Yes, get soul.

We're not sure yet whether he means UK based, northern soul, or it's fatherly relative, the US original created by people like Mr James Brown.

Tell The Truthiness ; If Mr Brown can sell his Scottishness and soul to the public, he could become a popular leader. He could be a soul man.
