The BBC must feel crushed as they have put so much of our money into talking up the LibDems and a LibLab coalition!

latest rumour: Gordon does not want to be at PMQ, he is quitting totally. So a coward to the very end. Only a total hypocrite could write a book about Heroes.

If Brown resigns totally from the labour leadership now, then who will Labour put up as temporary leader? Hattie? Is this why pro tem she is saying she would not stand as a candidate?

Howard stayed on and went to PMQs whilst he overlooked the new Tory leadership rules.

Presumably brown will sneak up the mall in the dark.

Lets face it the contortions and machinations around Brown going have been
as typical and every bit as deplorable as the events that put him into Downing St in the first place.

What will the BBC do now? After 13yrs as Blair/Brown Broadcasting Corporation they will have to get real. Gosh we might even get value for our money. Scrub that, not possible for them to learn that quickly.
