Brown moving into 10 Downing Street
Afp, London
British finance minister Gordon Brown, long tipped to take over from Prime Minister Tony Blair, is finally to move into 10 Downing Street -- even if he hasn't got the top job yet, officials said yesterday. The chancellor of the exchequer has strenuously denied that he is behind plotting to oust Blair, who was forced into saying last week that he would quit office within 12 months, having previously only said he would go before 2010. The move is on police advice and with "the agreement and help" of Blair's office, a Treasury spokesman said.
