        Patricia Hewitt says she thinks Mr Brown did very well in attacking the Tories over their economic policies at prime minister's questions. She says the PM's supporters - not just his opponents - should back her call for a secret ballot on his future. It will give Labour the best chance of winning the election, Ms Hewitt adds.
        This will be spun into a vote of confidence, which Brown will of course win.

          Working now, thanks for delivering the fix Churchy

          I had wondered if Gordo would be challenged prior to the election, odds are they're hoping for some honeymoon period that will raise their election chances.
          Let's face it who could they replace him with that has any credibility to make that shower electable?

              From the comments on the Beeb's "Technical problems" page:

              It's a shame that the BBC didn't give me a job working in your technical department. I've worked with computers for nearly thirty years and I'm one of the world's best Linux Engineers (according to Red Hat). I'd have your problems fixed by now. The reason given for not hiring me was that I wasn't enthusiastic enough about technology! However I was suffering from post traumatic stress at the time of the interview.

              Steve, please get your HR department to contact me. Thank you. John Airey.

                  There would be no honeymoon period prior to the election - Jonah would ask for a dissolution immediately, although that would mean stitching up Labour. He's that egocentric, malevolent, and vindictive.

                  The snag is most Labour MPs know this, and that they're in for a pasting come the election. So they're simply hanging on, to continue lining their own pockets for a few more months, and McDoom is as safe as the Rock of Gibraltar until then.

                    A couple of has-beens with no power in government trying to get one last hurrah before they are voted out?
