Gordon Browns speech

Gordon Brown has staked his claim to be the only man to steer Britain through tough economic times saying: "This is no time for a novice."
In a speech to Labour's conference, he said the Tories could not be trusted to run the economy and vowed Labour would not stop fighting for a "fair society".

The prime minister was under pressure to reassert his authority over the party and bury talk of a leadership challenge.
He told Labour rebels it was their "duty" to focus on the challenges facing the country rather than internal party rows.
The theme running through the speech was fairness and he pledged to create "a Britain of fair chances for all and fair rules applied to all".
He repeated his plan to extend free nursery places for all two-year-olds over the next 10 years - and he pledged to enshrine in law Labour's promise to end child poverty.
He highlighted a £300m plan to offer free computers and internet access for more than a million children from low income families to boost their chances in the jobs market.
