Brown is thought of as one of the best Politicians ever. He will eat Cameron for breakfast, then sh!t him out before lunch.
Eh?

Brown won't risk an election in October- although if he did he'd probably retain power with a slightly smaller majority.

If he goes to the country next year, we're looking at a miniscule Labour majority at best, he's missed his best chance of in my opinion.

Which as a Tory, I'm grateful for.

because while EVERYONE knows americans haven't grasped irony, he's been here long enough to have absorbed a little bit by osmosis.

and i can see brown losing the election if cameron gets his arse into gear and, y'know, actually comes up with some coherent policies that don't make him and his party look like cuunts.

I for one think we will see one in November, but I think it could be a mistake on Brown's part. It all depends on how quickly the Tories can get their act together really.

When it comes down to it, I agree that Brown is the better politician and will win it, though not by much.

I've just found out my MP is Charles Clarke :/

Yeah, but Goody's right. Gordon's either got to go now while the Tories are looking like a load of twats who have no idea what a policy is or why elections can only be won from the centre ground or wait for the resurgence that Cameron will eventually bring. If he went now, he'd win, Cameron would be out on his arse, the Tories will bring in someone from the right and will remain unelectable for years to come.

And also, Election Night is always fun. Dimbleby brothers ftw.

It's important not to underestimate how much money the Tories are pouring into marginals at the moment. Gordon Brown knows very well that his party aren't financially equipped to fight a campaign of the magnitude needed to keep his current majority; that's the gamble.

I thought Brown was going through a little popularity bubble since becoming PM, 'I'm an Old Labour, non-Blair' sort of person? So having a snap election around Hallow'een would be good for him, he won't have to think about another election for 5 years.

Anyway, I'm sure WCR would agree with me that your First-Past-The-Post system is quite boring compared to the fairer and madder STV PR system :cool:

It's the close races that are going to swing to the Tories, especially in the South and in places like Worcester, the sort of place that went red en masse in '97.
