Mubarak's Family Making a Run for the Border

Events are changing rapidly in Egypt. This morning they got the first Vice President they've had in 30 years, and the current president's family has beat feet for London:

According to the Al Jazeera news channel, there are reports that the Egyptian President's wife Suzanne Mubarak has left for London. It is unclear who is the source for this report. Al Jazeera reported earlier that Mubarak's two sons, Gamal and Ala, have arrived in London with their families, escaping Egypt as result of the unrest.

Having a hand-picked VP by the guy the people don't like probably isn't going to calm anything down. It may reveal weakness in the current government that the protesters and radicals will want to exploit.
