Cheerio Gordon Brown?

Well, I'm back again - just in time to witness Labour's defeat in the Glasgow East by-election to the Scottish National Party.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has urged his Labour colleagues to "have confidence" in policies which he said would "persuade" voters to back the party at the next general election.

Yeah, right....sorry Gordon, but it's starting to feel just like "sunny" Jim Callaghan's last days all over again (in case you're wondering who Jim Callaghan is, he was the hapless Labour PM during the industrial chaos of Britain's "Winter of discontent" which lead to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative victory in the 1979 general election).

It looks inevitable that when the next general election is called, Labour will be wiped out.
However replacing Gordon Brown with David Cameron doesn't exactly fill me with hope.....

Hmm...I wonder if American pornstar Mary Carey is interested in British politics?
