Gordon Brown has admitted recent events have been among the worst in his political life and made him think he could "walk away from this tomorrow".
He is however still deluded-But he insisted Labour could win the next election under his leadership.
And he has already chosen his career path-the prime minister also said he may go into teaching after leaving office.
This statement by Gord sums up why we are in such financial trouble-

This statement by Gord sums up why we are in such financial trouble-
During two interviews he gave the Guardian earlier this month, Mr Brown also said he wished he had imposed a tougher regulatory regime on the banking system, but said he "didn't want Britain to be outside the mainstream".
He also said he had been under heavy pressure to deregulate further, and acknowledged that he "didn't know a lot about" banks buying up sub-prime mortgages during his period as chancellor.
Labour MP Tony Wright told the BBC that Mr Brown had faced enormous problems during his time as prime minister.
He added: "He's the prime minister who has to preside over the worst financial and economic crisis for 60 years and the worst political crisis in modern times.
"Any prime minister presiding over that is going to take a battering. I would have thought the temptation to walk away would be great, but I've never seen Gordon as a walker-away."
Shame.
