"I defect!"

Brown is off the mark with a bang. He's not even moved into Number 10 Downing Street as yet and already Prime Minister Gordo has increased his party's majority by one as it has been announced that MP Quentin Davies has left the New Tories behind and taken up the whip of New Labour. It also tells us how right wing New Labour is these days that this shift is even possible. Mr. Davies took a shot at Young David Cameron on his way across the floor by telling him that "under your leadership the Conservative Party appears to me to have ceased collectively to believe in anything, or to stand for anything". He has dealt with this problem by leaving a party that claims to stand for something but ultimately does not to join a party that doesn't even go so far as to make the claim in the first place.
