Who’s the mysterious minister?

Although Bremner, Bird and Fortune has become stale over the last few years, it is still witty, clever and well researched. According to an interview in the Telegraph, it seems that Bremner has a secret tape he is unable to release (yet). It is a recording of Bremner pretending to be Brown and speaking on the telephone to a Cabinet minister in 2005 in which the minister revealed important information about their cabinet colleagues, including advice not to bring back Stephen Byers (no surprise there).

So who is this cabinet collegue? David Blunkett perhaps?

Update:  

Mystery solved.  It was Margaret Beckett.

    Dizzy raises a fine point on this story. Does this mean Blair gave Brown cabinet re-shuffle powers?
