I use 10in brush dual trim, perfect.

Tucker's mini pole is mint as well, a must.

A tucker dual trim has the middle parts of the brush bristles shorter than the exterior ones so the external ones splay a bit to stop water spray, get in the corners etc and is considered by many in the states a better brush but it does depend on the type of work you do. Tucker will advise.
They do an interesting one that has a sponge centre for use with hot glass to dissapate the heat. I think they have about 6 different brushes in their range but they are a bit heavy.
10" for domestics 16 for commercial

I would agree with Jeff,

Go for the 10" Dual trim for domestic work, great brush.

Just a thought on where to buy.

http://www.purewindowwater.co.uk/

These guys reckon that they are the cheapest on tucker poles in the uk. I've not done the research myself but I spoke to a guy called James that heads the company and he said that he sells more and is cheaper than tucker pole.

Maybe worth the inquiry.  I've only ever done business with them on RO's and WS's and they've proved reliable even changing a faulty pump on the RO recently under warranty.

Yep. But the saving isn't as much, so may as well buy uk. Make sure it's dead level before screwing on!!
