2012 Ministry

As noted a few days ago on this site, Tessa Jowell's position of running the 2012 London Olympic Games now looks to be untenable.

The BBC reports that Gordon Brown is actively considering setting up a ministry for the 2012 Olympics.

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), under Tessa Jowell, currently has responsibility for the Games.

Brown seemingly wants a heavyweight to take charge of the Olympics, given the ongoing shambles over the budget this is hardly surprising.
