Harman denies planning leader bid
Ms Harman says Mr Brown is the "solution" not the "problem" |
Harriet Harman has insisted she is "not preparing the ground for a leadership election" amid growing speculation over Prime Minister Gordon Brown's future.
The Commons Leader rejected a Times report she was overheard telling aides after Labour's Glasgow East by-election defeat: "This is my moment."
Mr Brown has been under pressure since Labour saw its majority overturned by the SNP in last Thursday's poll.
Two Labour MPs have openly called for him to consider resigning.
But Downing Street sources told the Press Association that reports Ms Harman and Foreign Secretary David Miliband were preparing leadership challenges were "garbage".
