   On the radio this morning Gordon Brown’s official biographer (whose name I forget) said that “his main problem is a catastrophic collapse in confidence”.

   And he was on the show to defend Brown against Matthew Parris!

   That’s quite a serious problem. Maybe he should go and see a doctor about that.

   Is this his “vision”: an oncoming HGV bearing down on him and no hope of getting out of its way?
