For my readers back home, just a quick reminder amidst all this G20 hullabaloo - here in the UK Gordon Brown is a politician on the ropes. He's seriously behind in national polls and he'll need to call an election in a little over the year. He desperately needs to restore confidence in his government before then if he wants to stay in power, and this is something that Barack - who is far more popular over here than the Prime Minister - is in a position to be very helpful with.
That's why Gordon was beaming with such evident (and uncharacteristic) pleasure yesterday any time the camera caught him looking at the Prez.
