	UK Prime Minister sounds retreat on Biofuels – Sumatran Orangutan Society
		Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister, said yesterday that the UK would reconsider how far it was prepared to sign up to proposals for a tenfold increase in the use of biofuels by 2020, in response to fears this was causing a "world crisis" in the cost of food.
		Total biofuel consumption in the UK is likely to be about 1.2 billion litres this year and 2.5 billion litres in 2010.
		The UK government is to provide £30 million to help the 840 million people estimated to be suffering chronic hunger, while the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation says the food crisis has hit 36 countries.

	Prime Minister of the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Prime Minister is appointed by the Sovereign, who is bound by constitutional convention to choose the individual most likely to command the support of the House of Commons (normally, the leader of the party with a majority in that body).
		The title "Prime Minister", however, is not altogether a matter of convention, as in 1905 it was in a sense given official recognition when the "Prime Minister" was named in the "order of precedence," outranked, among non-royals, only by the Archbishops of Canterbury and York and by the Lord Chancellor.
		Whenever the office of Prime Minister falls vacant, the Sovereign is responsible for appointing the new incumbent; the appointment is formalised at a ceremony known as Kissing Hands.
