[edit] no successor for dpm?

wasn't prescott dpm only recently? --Xorkl000 11:42, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

Try reading Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. You'll see that it was left vacant for nearly five years after Howe's resignation, so "vacant" is an appropriate successor, even if the post was later filled by Heseltine and then Prescott. --rbrwr^± 12:24, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

Should it a link to Howe's resignation speech be included - the address is http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm199091/cmhansrd/1990-11-13/Debate-1.html#Debate-1_spnew51
