Remarkable: One voice from the commentators

In nearly 40 years of reading political comment, I have never come across two articles published on the same day that are similar and end using almost identical words.

Matthew D’Ancona ends his article saying:

Ask not for whom the phone rings, Gordon; it rings for thee.

John Rentoul ends his article saying:

Ask not for whom the phone rings, Gordon. It's for you.

Rentoul even blogs about the similarity here.

Andrew Rawnsley’s article is similar also.

Remarkable and very telling.
