From The Times
June 9, 2009
Gordon Brown threw himself on the mercy of his party last night and promised to change the way that he governed as he tackled the crisis of confidence that has engulfed his leadership.
Excerpt:
His attitude of humility took the party by surprise. “I have my strengths and I have my weaknesses. I know I need to improve. There are some things I do well and some things I do not so well. I know I have got to keep learning all the time,” he said. He also promised to use the talents of everyone, act in a more collective way and be more open and transparent.
