The story of what really went on in UK Prime Minister Tony Blair’s government is now out, with the former leader’s memoirs published Wednesday 1 September. According to the BBC, the big news is that he found Gordon Brown hard to work with, calling his successor as PM “maddening” if brilliant. The Telegraph agrees and quotes Blair as saying Brown had “zero emotional intelligence” while the Guardian brings out the only pre-publication interview with Blair on the book, where he urges Labour not to move to the left.
