Mandelson's return

The return of Peter Mandelson as Business Secretary in Gordon Brown's reshuffle has caught many by surprise - although he has attracted considerable support even from the political right, as a political heavyweight who can add some much needed gravitas to a rather light-weight government. We shall see. Whilst Mandelson is clearly a clever and talented individual, the fact that he has twice had to resign from the government after reasonably short periods in office might be taken as an indication that he is unsuited to the strictures of cabinet government. It would, however, be a relief to be proved wrong on this occasion - with the state of the world as it is, this government needs all the help it can get.
