Snap Election

Sounds painful.

What the point a that?

To take advantage of current strong public opinion in their (Labour) favor if they suspect that public opinion of them will not get any stronger, but only weaker if more time is left for the next election.


(I think...)

The US has just announced a 0.5% cut in interest rates so I think Gordon will wait till a boost in the American economy starts to benefit the UK and the bank of England is in a position to cut interest rates here.

Gordon will then announce to the nation that he is our saviour and will cut interest rates so that we can all afford our mortgages again.

Snap election immediately follows and we are stuck with the bloke for 4 years.

An election looks on for November.

What a pain in the ass.

If Gordon Brown loses...he will look like the worlds biggest eejit

He knows Cameron looks a prize plonker now because he was a mirror of Blair and now he's gone he kinda looks a bit silly.

That's my deep political opinion anyway...
