Who would be stupid enough to bet on the Lib Dems at 10/1? Maybe 30/1 might entice a few punters.

Might be better if he remains PM from the Conservative point of view.

I was specifically told that there were no Tories in Crewe and Natwich. It's why I went to Plymouth this weekend!

I was going to take a punt on when Brown would be kicked out but with those odds I don't think I'll bother.
The guys finished and he doesn't know it

Just heard the prat on the radio whittling on about a new iniative to ease the funding gap for elderly care in England. Wasn't he one the prats that created the gap with devolution and the pensions raid?

LFAT,

At 10/1 I'd be better off lending it to my daughter, either way I wouldn't see it back.

James,

Yes it would be better, but I can't help wanting to see him get his comeuppence.

Yes that's right Gordon. Just keep taking the tablets:)

DH,

He doesn't get the fact that what he needs to do is sort out all the crap he has caused. Unfortunately for him, we want someone else to sort it out. Someone we can trust.
