I'm just wondering what I'd do if he was my local MP - God forbid.

Might be doable if it was the lib-dems on 26%.

abouot 8000, 50% v the tories' 26%

Not impossible, but i'd be bloody surprised.

12% + swings aren't THAT unusual.

What's so nice about it is that he is such a cocky bastard.How the mighty has fallen since his statement on welfare reform not long ago.eight thousand votes is doable in the present state of the parties.

I know the BBC are shit but I'm surprised at how brazen they've been in lumping (Buf)Hoon, Purnell and Blears together. They're really quite different circumstances and the current hysteria is costing the issue of expenses credibility.

the reforms are still steaming ahead though, they are about the only major policy Brown has, he can't afford to lose Purnell and abandon them.
