Reply #11: PM Brown also visited B. Clinton.............privately.

[Alamom]

It also emerged that Mr Brown had held private talks with Bill Clinton, the former US president, at the Waldorf Hotel in New York on Monday night, just hours after leaving Camp David following his mini-summit with George W Bush.

The meeting with Mr Clinton - which was not mentioned on his formal itinerary - is certain to be seen as a move to prepare for the post-Bush world, with Hillary Clinton the frontrunner in the race to become the Democratic candidate for next year’s Presidential election.

However, Downing Street official stressed that the former president was deeply involved in the battle against global poverty.
