Not convinced, Gordon

On Comment is Free, Anne Perkins has a strong piece in which she says that MPs have brought derision on themselves by excluding themselves from the Freedom of Information Act. She hopes that Gordon Brown really means it when he talks about bringing openness and accountability to government, but has some well-deserved criticism for his campaign manager, Jack Straw.

Also on CiF, Frank Luntz argues that Brown should do a better job of getting across his claim to be moving away from spin.
