Brown is PM at the moment p hart Send a noteboard - 08/05/2010 06:16:48 PM
and is until it is shown that he cannot command the majority of parliment, obviosuly everyone could go down today and just test that, but they'll negotiate first, and then Brown will resign probably.

I can't believe i'm hearing reports that Brown went all emo down the phone at Clegg, why did this guy want to be PM, he doesn't seem to have any visions he wants to implemement beyond sound-bites like "social justice".


Oh no seems libdems have giving permission to talk to Tories, please no tories no tories.
