Guardian Election Daily: David Cameron names his cabinet

A procession of favoured Conservative and Liberal Democrat MPs entered 10 Downing Street today to accept control of government departments on David Cameron 's first day in power. Simon Hoggart , the Guardian's sketchwriter, gives his take on the first public outing of the Cameron-Clegg alliance. And the Guardian's chief political correspondent Nicholas Watt interprets the allocation of the top jobs and explains the deal that allowed Cameron to become Britain's 52nd prime minister. Meanwhile, influential Conservative blogger Tim Montgomerie sees trouble ahead for his party as they "sold off the family silver" in order to get into government. And, as the Labour party comes to terms with a loss of power and the resignation of its leader, we hear who MPs such as Hazel Blears and Sir Stuart Bell want to replace Gordon Brown. Leave your thoughts below.
