Look like it.

Blunkett has refused a place in the cabinet and Sky have got hold of the backbench email doing the rounds.

Don't think of buttering that toast just yet Nick, it will take another big name or two to resign before it's likely.

You may prepare the marmalade should you wish however

Lets hope he's not just toasted, but burnt to a bloody crisp!

he won't step down as no one wants the poisoned chalice of a doomed labour leadership - looks like they'll lose the next election so there'd be a change in leader then, i can't think anyone would want the job as a caretaker until they get booted out.
on a side note - i can't see how Cameron would have handled the problems Brown has had any better tho   

The front pages make grim reading for Gordy:

I don't want to sound too gloomy but I think the shennanigins going on in Parliament are only a reflection of what is happening nationally.  People in jobs they're not up to; the rules getting sidelined "because everyone's doing it".

Does that sound gloomy?  It does really doesn't it?

Springwatch has some cheery stuff on it!!!!!

Just  felt a bit sorry for Gordy but it soon passed!

All that time he waited to become PM and unlike Blair who presided over good times (boom years) Gordy has only seen bad times.

I am still unimpressed by any of the other politicians apart from Vince Cable. Not much talent around.

Here is a thought. Next election will go Conservatives way for sure but they probably won't fare too well. So at the subsequent election what chances of that universally liked fellow Mandelson being labour PM??!!
Start quaking..........

That’s perhaps the natural result of the disillusionment evident in the voting public frustrated and angry with the chaos and incompetence which this administration has shown.

What we can’t be sure about however, Kevin, is what sort of job of it their replacements would make.

There is a fundamental fault , a lack of understanding, a complete disconnect in most of our legislators with the practical reality, now being faced by a lot of people throughout this country, as they struggle in the confused and convoluted environment that is modern Britain.

Until there is a properly accountable system to which our administrators must adhere, there can be no real change.  Until there are strong sanctions – real sanctions – for misbehaviour, it will be difficult to have any degree of confidence in the belief that the system of government, this country needs, is likely to recover its dignity, its vision and above all, its decency
