1125: Gordon Brown and his wife Sarah have arrived at a nursery in Stirling. One of the children gives the prime minister a pink plastercine piglet - what is it about pigs today? He thanks the child, saying "it's not every day you get a gift like that". Well, quite. The visit is part of an effort by Labour to cast their family policies in a favourable light compared with those of the Tories and Lib Dems.
