Blair–Brown deal
The Blair–Brown deal (or Granita Pact) was an alleged gentlemen's agreement struck between Shadow Home Secretary Tony Blair and Shadow Chancellor Gordon Brown in May 1994. It is widely believed that the two met in the now-defunct restaurant Granita in Islington, London, following the death of Labour Leader John Smith on 12 May, and that Brown agreed, in return for certain promises, to not stand for the leadership in order to allow Blair a better chance of victory. The existence of any deal was denied for many years by both Blair and Brown.
==Summary==
It was widely believed that Gordon Brown agreed not to stand in the 1994 Labour leadership election in order to allow Tony Blair an easy victory. In return, Brown would be granted wide powers over domestic policy in any Blair Government; Blair would go on to lead Labour to a landslide victory in the 1997 general election. It was also widely believed that Blair agreed, if he was appointed Prime Minister, to stay in the job for only two terms and then resign in Brown's favour.〔 cited in 〕
