Spending Review Of 2005 That Never Happened 

During the Andrew Marr interview that coincided with the book launch, Tony Blair stated that he thought that a spending review was needed in 2005, but that he was unable to start one because Gordon Brown was politically too strong. Is this discussed in the book? If so, then it is dynamite - the deficit is going to be a major issue for years to come - and it would certainly be worth mentioning in the article.
