I've just called Downing Street. Brown is still prime minister. He has not resigned ? yet.
But, to be fair to the Standard, Sky has not got it quite right. Here's the Standard story. It says Brown is about to quit.
Live blog: quote
Gordon Brown is set to resign tonight and allow David Cameron to be Britain's new prime minister.
The Labour leader's final desperate attempt to cling on to power with a Lib-Lab deal crumbled amid a rebellion on his own side and policy disagreements with Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg.
This afternoon he retreated to No 10 to discuss his situation with senior ministers, friends and wife Sarah.
