³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

Anyone who listens to numbers is merely a technician. They have no political nose at all and are the walking dead. As we write the numbers are becoming history and action is creating a new future. Better just to shrug and live life as it is.

Where are you Nick? Where are you? I'm up watching ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ 2 and I can see you blogging, but you aren't on television!

A protest vote helped by negative news covergae of the government by the media.

No 3:
In your dreams!

I don't know why everybody is acting so suprised? Gordon Brown simply isnt listening to the country. It annoys me how David Cameron is going to win a general election without hardly opening his mouth, but people would probably vote in a chicken now if it meant getting rid of Gordon.

This point is demonstrated perfectly in the Labour Party's response to the Crewe defeat. "We believe its people telling us they are feeling the pinch." An unbelievable way to patronise the electorate!! Stop patronising - Start listening - but if they want to have a chance of winning the General Election - Ditch the unelected PM.

The fact that many labour MP's still back Gordon Brown shows clearly that it is time for a change in government, if they got rid of him,i would still vote labour, if they don't then david cameron it is

It should be simple for Labour, some of their MPs have grasped it but others haven't- with Gordon Brown as leader, Labour will be slaughtered at the next general election (May 2010 we'll assume)

The only issue for Labour should be who? There will be a lot of pressure for the likes of David Miliband and Ed Balls to run for party leader but they may feel that the party is doomed to defeat in 2010 anyway so why tarnish their name?

Well, there is one reason. Because the country's needs come above those of a career politician. I just hope that someone has the 'Ed' to step up and challenge Gordon if the situation arises, instead of paddling along to the next election with no improvement and no way of stopping the butchery that the general election currently looks like it will be...

"Opposition parties", Nick? Labour isn't one of them - yet!!!

the only way I believe Labour has any chance of recovery to win the next election is for Brown to resign in the next month or two, tobe replaced by someone who has not played any part atall during the Blair/Brown era so that he or she can honestly admit to the electorate - yes we had made these almighty errors and and can say hand on heart - and I played no part in any of these decisions. Brown just does not have the right image and governments and individual politiicans in democracies now (rightly or wrongly) largely stand or fall based on the image - the problem has been it is difficult to present an acceptable image of someone like Brown who is not a natural front man without people seeing through the obvious spin.

So, in summary, what Nick is trying to tell us is that the Tories are rubbish as usual.

Change the record please.
