Margaret Beckett has been tricked by the impressionist Rory Bremner into thinking he was Gordon Brown in a hoax call that led her to make indiscreet comments about colleagues.
In a taped conversation, the Foreign Secretary was taken in by a telephone call from Bremner and told "the Chancellor" that Patricia Hewitt was "out of her depth" while Alan Milburn, a close ally of Tony Blair, couldn't "hack it" as party chairman.
Another reason why Bremner is great. Can't wait to hear the recording
