Given Clarke's current troubles (according BBC.co.uk (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/4946566.stm), he offered to resign yesterday), I just wonder what we would get as a replacement. Since each new Home Secretary seems to move to the right (and I thought Jack Straw was bad enough - but then Blunkett, and now Clarke) - well, it doesn't bear consideration where they would try to take us!
