How many Liebour council losses ?

[Joe Black]

Is it just me?

I don't see Gay Gordon as the next labour leader, particularly if Tone goes down in flames.
Just because Tone is backing him doesn't mean he will get the vote.
Why does the whole World see him as PM in waiting?

Because they've done a deal.

Using the new "we're just tidying up the red tape" legislation, Tony has agreed to change the rules so that only GB can be the future PM, and in return, using similar legislation, El Gordo has agreed to make TB a one-off hereditary peer in the Lords.

They might have done a deal, but when he steps down he will have to step down as the leader of NL and sure as hell they will want their say in who will be next leader! As the party is presently in power the PM title comes with that job so every power hungry mongrel will be throwing his/her hat/bonnet into the ring. 2 shags (with chipolatta) is likely to run as he normally carries the backing of the Unions and old labour. Do you think blindgit will miss the opportunity...... and all the usual suspects.

Thanks LG, you've just spoiled my attempt at satire/parody by telling everyone that it just ain't going to happen...

Political commentators are saying that if Liebour lose less than 200 council seats, they won't have too many problems as a result. Between 200 & 250 losses will be very bad, over 250 and the party will be really out for Blair's blood.

So let's have a poll. How many council seats will Labour lose control of ?

... and already we have some wishful thinking !

All the parties to lose, Labour Tory and Libdem, they're all scumbags none of them deserve to win anything except an execution. If anything I'd love to see the BNP wipe the floor with all of them.

In my 40 years on the planet I've voted at every election but with Cameron running the tories I just can't vote for them so I've abstained. Hopefully the tory vote will collapse and Cameron will be toast.

Just one correct answer

With Liebour losing 255 councillors, just the one person got it right.

Now we'll see if the political pundits in the media got it right by saying more than 250 losses would spell serious trouble for Bliar.
