Independent: "Gordon Brown has paved the way for the withdrawal of British troops from Iraq by telling George Bush he would not delay their exit in order to show unity with the United States.
After four hours of one-to-one talks with the US President at his Camp David retreat, Mr Brown told a joint press conference he would make a Commons statement in October on the future of the 5,500 British troops in the Basra region."
Scotsman: "Mr Brown made clear that the UK would relinquish control of its fourth and final province in the south of the country, but did not give a specific date."
Well, that is amazing. If this really is true, then Brown will make a difference. I can't wait.
