    Not really, he's been taken off the UK front line politics and been sent to Europe as: EU Trade Commissioner. Obviously still under control of the influence of the liebour spin machine:

    Do you think Blair will hang on until the next election then?

    If not then apart from Brown, I'm struggling to think of any Labour MPs with any credibility with the electorate at all.

    Prescott and Hain - idiots (I still cannot believe that these two help run the country!)
    Straw and Clarke - out of their depths
    Hewitt and Hoon - incompetent
    Milibrand and Balls - smartarses
    Darling - has achieved absolutely nothing (although, alongside the rest that might make him the best candidate)

    The rest - pygmy socialists

    Strange how Brownstaff will find the money for the MP's 22 percent pay rise.
    A political masterstroke.

    The pensionsers will be jailed due their inablity to pay rising fuel and coucnil tax bills, they willl be put to state slave labour servicing EDS government contracts.

    This solves the pension crises at a stroke.

    Raised the price of diesel Oil, heads computerised and yellow zizag lines of warning.

    If he does make it to number 10, Cameron will be the next Prime minister

    I think so, certainly when it comes to protracted negotiations with, say, the EU. Politicians who will shy away from the tough decisions aren't much use in situations like that.

    He hasn't got that ruthless streak it takes to be a Prime Minister anyway. He could have finished Blair at the height of the Iraq crisis and has had opportunities before and since. At the critical moment he's always backed down.

    Agreed. Brown's tax antics, the slow eroding of Blair's popularity, the stagnation of 'New' Labour, the rise of a new pretender. It's a foregone conclusion.
