until I leave the country, but could it be less for Gordon Brown? That is certainly the discussion taking place today and with foresight I was asked to create an illustration about it for today's Independent. The inspiration for the image was the famous scene of Doc Brown clinging to the clock tower in Back To The Future, so I envisaged Gordon Brown doing a similar thing to the clock tower that houses Big Ben. Perhaps unfairly it always helps to characterise Brown as decidely unathletic, so you'll notice there is little grace on show, although one might argue that such an observation isn't a bad metaphor for his current position in politics.
