Rumour: Alan Johnson has been offered Shadow Chancellor

11:39 BREAKING NEWS: Labour Uncut are breaking news that a rumour is going around Labour circles that the former Alan Johnson has been offered the post of Shadow Chancellor, and all the other post will depend on if Alan accepts that role.

Alan Johnson is a semi-blairite,but is loved and respected on all wings of the party, but this could be controversial because Mr Johnson has no economic credentials, except being the Trade and Industry Secretary in 2005-6, and that Yvette Cooper and her husband Ed Balls have much better claim to the key post in Ed Miliband's team.
