Gordon Brown admits that the recent political crises hurt him and made him think he could "walk away" from Downing Street.

I think Gordon Brown should hang in there and stick it out in order to make the victory even bigger for the Conservatives.

I'm not so sure that he will hang on. If yet another crisis blows up, either nationally or within the Labour Party itself, I think it'll be the end of dear old Gordon.

And I'm not so sure that we'll get a large Conservative win either. The convergence and 'safeness' of the policies of the three main parties these days is tending to make people either not vote or vote for the more marginal but more radical parties instead. Parties who aren't afraid of facing issues head on, like the BNP with immigration and UKIP with taking us out of the EU.

I doubt Gordon Brown will leave unless something really major happens. All I can say is that if Maragret Thatcher deserved to be kicked out by the Conservative party then why hasn't Gordon Brown gone?

The answer is simple. Labour under Brown is totally unsaveable. Because each and every member of the cabinet are totally inept and cannot bring themselves to tell Brown he is the problem, the Labour ship will drift on until it finally hits the rocks.

With Brown bring his new initiatives every day, each of which is more stupid than the last, the plot has been well and truly lost, but no one has the courage to tell him to stop making a complete a... of himself.
