PM pledges 'nation over politics'
Peter Mandelson says it is 'third time lucky'
The national interest must come before party politics, the prime minister has said of his controversial appointment of Peter Mandelson to the cabinet.
Mr Mandelson, considered divisive by many Labour MPs, was drafted back to the cabinet for an unprecedented third time in a major cabinet reshuffle.
Gordon Brown said he wanted the best talent to tackle the economic crisis.
But some MPs have not welcomed Mr Mandelson's return - one cabinet member is thought to have tried to prevent it.http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7652288.stm
