Brown bottles it!


















Andrew Sheridan drove the England front row forward to victory today.
Gordon Brown led the Labour retreat from calling an election today.



What an incredible day it has been! Unfancied England beat Australia 12 -10. The front row of their pack was immense, driving Australia back time after time. France beat New Zealand, favourites to win the 2007 World Cup, by two points. And Gordon Brown rules out an election!

For a guy who was 10 points up in some polls one week ago to call off the election after polls in the marginals suggest a 6 point swing to Conservatives is some humiliation! It shows Brown in his real colour. He has been trying to become leader of the labour party for years, prepared to stab Tony Blair in the back whenever he could. Now we see that the colour of his liver really is yellow. Is he fit to run the country? When will he bottle it next? Can he cope with a real crisis? He can talk tough, but his real colour is yellow.

And Ming's party is now down to 11% in the polls. Looks like Chris Huhne is heading for a drubbing in Eastleigh. Will he try to find a safe seat somewhere else? Is there a safe Lib. Dem seat anywhere in the country?
