I suspect that Labour will take it but with a vastly reduced majority. If this had taken place before the meltdown they'd have been out on their ear. Trouble is some people seem to believe that Supergordo is doing a good job ::)

Indeed... From Leg-Iron again... (http://leg-iron.livejournal.com/)
There was once an unfenced hill where a flock of sheep lived.
One rainy day, a man came to talk to them. "It's cold and wet here. How can you stand it?" he asked.
"It's not so bad," said the sheep. " We get up when we like, there's plenty to eat, and life is pretty good most of the time. It's raining now but we can just go under the trees if it gets too much. It will stop eventually. We have our freedom, and to us that's the most important thing."
"It looks awful," the man said. "And how do you know it will stop raining? It might go on for weeks. Your land might become swampy and all your grass might be washed away. Tell you what, there is a big building over there. It's warm and dry inside. I will make it let you in. It's only fair. You deserve better than this."
"Is there grass to eat?" the sheep asked.
"No, but I will make the building provide hay. I will make it provide a place to sleep and food to eat and you need do nothing to earn it. You'll be warm and dry and still you'll be free. Really, it's best to take my offer just in case, don't you think? Surely you can see it's for your benefit?"
Some of the sheep were suspicious. "What do you get out of it?"
"Me? Nothing." The man smiled. "And once in a while, I'll invite the most special of you to come and live in a special flock where life will be more wonderful than you have ever known. Of course, you won't all be able to join that flock at once but I promise, every one of you will pass through the Golden Doorway eventually."
The sheep considered. A few distrusted the man and refused to go with him, but most accepted his kind offer. They laughed and scoffed at those who chose to stay in the rain while they filed obediently into the man's dry, warm abattoir.

Well, I was already depressed and that little parable has nailed the final corner of my coffin shut.

If it's any comfort, his majority was reduced by 1/3, but it is sending a clear message out to the blind and gullible...of which there are plenty.... that Brown IS indeed the man.
The man for what exactly though? Another 4 years of bloody misery and hardship. Banghead
