Guardian: Brown planning Spring ’08 poll

The Guardian has a story in today’s edition suggesting that Gordon Brown has pencilled in spring 2008 as the time for an election. Apparently, campaign professionals are being sounded out about working for the campaign with polling day planned for sometime before May 1st.

This date would have the advantage of short-circuiting the Cameron project without Brown risking a backlash from the country for calling an election just because he’s ahead in the polls that he might face if he went this autumn. What are your predictions for what the result of a spring ‘08 poll would be?
