I can well imagine Blair talking to Gordon Brown, who was urging Blair to join him and take Labour ever further to the left, but he wasn't having any of that...
"Why are you going that way? I'm not going that way. I mean, y'know, I'm a pretty straight kind of robot, trained for diplomacy, and that way is much too difficult, not straightforward at all. This New Labour way is far simpler, and will easily lull the people into thinking we are somehow different, better than Labour was before."(R2-Gord2 makes some of his usual incomprehensible noises at this point)
"What's that? I heard that! I think you're just trying to trick me into going the wrong way."
...and so it goes on. Well, I certainly find it easier to picture that scene. Any other ideas of a similar nature out there?
