I've been spending the wee small hours of Monday morning reading An Anatomy of Economic Inequality, a 460-page report commissioned by the Government Equalities Office that was published last week. It's an extraordinary document for the government to have produced, not least because it provides the Tories with such a wealth of ammunition. The report was commissioned by Harriet Harman and it constitutes such a damning verdict on Tony Blair and Gordon Brown's premierships it reads like a deliberate attempt by Harman to discredit them. Promising to do more about Britain's economic inequality -- and chastisng Blair and Brown for doing so little -- will be a central plank of Harman's leadership campaign, no doubt.
