Isn't it amazing what donations made during an election for the deputy leadership of the Labour party will lead to? This was originally made in June at the height of the excitement which got Harriet Harman to the heady heights of Gordon's deputy.

The Northern Rock crisis hints at very nasty problems associated with the city of London and the way Gordon Brown allowed it a long leash while he was Chancellor. The resulting crisis looks like the unpleasant result what former Chairman of The US Federal Reserve bank, Alan Greenspan, used to call irrational exuberance.*
A potted history of Prometheus:
Here on Mount Caucasus, Prometheus was tormented day and night by a giant vulture tearing at his liver. By day, the eagle would come down to the cliff and devour Prometheus' liver, and by night the liver would regenerate, only to have it destroyed the following day again.

Al Gore is officially commended for his efforts to help save the planet. He might get an opportunity to finish off Hillary Clinton, as a fringe benefit, too. This would be a result for him, if you believe the stories about their previous relationship when they were last together in the White House...

I wanna be the leader
I wanna be the leader
Can I be the leader?
Can I? Can I?
Promise? Promise?
Yippee I'm the leader
OK What shall we do?

The 'bounce' clearly remains very much in operation. It was a careful PMs speech, long on exhortation, generalities and clever political positioning. It was, however, short of any detail of how the desirable generalities are going to be achieved on either side of the upcoming election. Watch that space. Reaction from the great and the good is here courtesy of the BBC.

This week on the Tribune History blog, we take a look at a 1907 strike which closed the music halls for a fortnight - and at the part played in the dispute by the doyenne of performers, Marie Lloyd. You can also catch up on past Strike of the Month features and our ever popular series on Old Statespersons.

The Tribune History Blog is back after the bank holiday break with an Old Stateswoman profile on Beatrice Webb, Fabian intellectual, trade union historian, apologist for Stalinist Russia – but most of all, tireless campaigner against the workhouse system.
Yes, even hard-working political journals must take a little time off. Normal service will be resumed in early September. We’ll see whether 'bouncing Brown' is still in operation...

Hello and welcome to the site. As well as brilliant cartoons from Alex Hughes and Martin Rowson this week's edition of Tribune contains an expose of the British firms profiting from a different form of global terror, a disturbing account of genocide in Baluchistan, Ken Livingstone on Boris Johnson, news on the Tory council in turmoil after appointing a BNP member to its race equality committee and an arts section which includes reviews of John Pilger, Harold Pinter and television's treatment of gay sex. And satirist Chris Proctor takes an irreverently funny look at Afghanistan.

Enjoy!
Mayor Ken calls Boris, his biggest challenge yet. Speaking for the cartooning and caricaturing fraternity, it will certainly be entertaining and, thus, cartoonists for Johnson!

If you think the one and only general strike in this country took place in 1926, think again. Tribune History has an account of the 1842 general strike during which half a million workers downed tools across much of the North of England, Scotland and Wales.
