How are we counting this? In my book 7th May was day 0 but it is also valid to say that Sunday is the third extra day that he is in charge.

How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

Brown is probably having a nice holiday. Catching up on Glee from Sky+ after all that tiring campaigning, there's no nothing for him to do.
