What he actually said was that he intends to limp on as PM for a further 4 months before resigning as labour leader, in the meantime the pound and the stock market crash and burn.

No, he didn't.

He said that he would stand down as Labour leader when a leadership election can be arranged, which is incredibly bad advice from a party political point of view. Every time a party elects a new leader in the immediate aftermath of an election defeat, they lose (at least that is the case for every post war election). If the Tories had done that after the last defeat, David Davies would be leader, rather than Cameron, so this situation probably wouldn't be happening now.

If there is a Labour coalition, then he will remain as PM until the party leadership election. After that, either the new leader or an alternative would become PM, depending on whether the new Labour leader is acceptable to the coalition.

But, there would need to be a Labour coalition first, which is a long way off.

This one??

Full 5 minute version - YouTube - Campbell v Boulton arguing live on Sky News. Watch to the end!

(Nice forum touch, it automatically put the description to the link just from the URL. NICE!)

The YouTube comments have rather a different bias:

Adam Boulton is so unprofessional it makes me sick the bias shown towards the Conservatives through the Sky News Election coverage. Tory Scumbag Adam Boulton, Murdoch's Puppet

When will theTories realise that if thay had WON the election,as they keep telling us they have, NONE of this would be happening--at least they could admit that two thirds of the electorate voted against a Tory goverment--many of us have waited 20 years for this chance for a progressive centre left alliance.And who gives a **** about the markets!?--since when have they been a reflection of the British peoples real compassionate spirit

Adam Boulton has always been a Tory, now he has shown it to everyone

The right wing media are crumbling, Nick Robinson on the BBC had a similar moment. Go Campbell, you are just orchestrating what the 15 million people who voted against this right wing drivel are thinking.

Ha ha ha ha.

Just shows what an unpleasant bully Campbell is. Funnily enough, Mandelscum played the same card when Adam Boulton confronted him during a press conference before the election with all that "calm down Adam" patronising crap. Glad he managed to have his say this time.

that was quite funny actually... (Above)

If the tories don't form a part of the next government its time to go folks, this is serious.

They will, don't worry about it. They have to FFS.

Yep. Campbell was launching into full spin mode - you got the sense that Boulton was thinking "I've just about had enough of this spin bull tulip over the years" and let loose on him.

I think we saw a reasonable reaction from a man who is quick to see what this all could mean. He views their moves as 'playing politics with the nations future', and in his altercation with that slime campbell also said 'I actually care about this country', the inference being that campbell clearly doesn't.

If the tories don't form a part of the next government its time to go folks, this is serious.

I bet he regrets not calling that snap election that he would have won in 2007 now.

What he actually said was that he intends to limp on as PM for a further 4 months before resigning as labour leader, in the meantime the pound and the stock market crash and burn. Their intention is to have the election cost Brown the leadership but not cost labour their government. The labour project under the leadership of mandelson, campbell, brown etc are desperate to cling on. This is actually making me quite angry, I think we are reaching a point where the assasination of these psychopaths would be a sensible option for the good of the country.
