She isn't going to be Deputy PM though.

Brown is now Labour Leader, & becomes PM on Wednesday -

I wonder if Jack Straw will go back to being Foreign Secretary? He ran Brown's campaign, & is currently Leader of the House of Commons (after being demoted by Blair to that position from Foreign Secretary, like Robin Cook before him).
