Brown calling snap election

[Cyberman]

Now that things are so good and that Brown has saved the world he is rumoured to be considering an election early next year. After all, if he waits he knows that unemployment could well be an official 3 million by the end of 2009, and rising.

Maggie had her millions...

What will Brown have? B-b-b-billions?

Snap election, is that where we look at the policies of the parties and go... "Snap"

The only policies that count are the one's of those in power, sadly.

The ONLY chance Brown has is if he goes in the Spring of 2009, even then I do not think he can do it, but it is his ONLY chance.

Brown has made a balls of the economy, the "boom" was financed by public and private debt, borrowing will top £100 billion in a year or two, which is about £2500 for every tax payer, and that is just for one year.

I still think Brown will win.

The electorate are such numpties.

Didn't Major win in 92 at the height of the last recession. When things are tough, I think the natural inclination is to stick with what you know. Plus Cameron, Osbourne are distinctly untrustworthy. Can't we have that Ken Clark back?
Having said that, I doubt "Bottler" Brown will have the gumption to go for an early election. I suspect he'll try and stick it out until 2010 (when he'll lose). Unless Mandy twists his arm of course.

Are we presuming Brown would want to win the next election?

I still think Brown will win.
