Paul left the world bank this morning.
it is reported on Reuters at 8.13am.

Well, Blair has left the building though he seems to be enjoying the dual prime ministerial
role and is still 'working away', not quite leaving the way clear for Brown at all.

Two Prime ministers.

One would have though that a resignation would delineate leaving the world stage
and going somewhere quiet to write those memoirs which we cannot wait for,
others have written the true story of the Prime minister and chronicled all the
historical issues that get lost in the Downing Street spin dept.

He hast left the building
