BBC News: Reports on the resignation of PM Gordon Brown as Labour Leader. This is a neat trick by Labour, they get Brown out and then replace him with a new leader. The one problem with this move is that a new Labour Leader in a Labour/Lib Dem Pact would become PM without the consent of the voters. If the Lib Dems go down this road they will go in to political oblivion. This does recall the Lib/Lab Pact of the 1970s, that was a disaster for Labour and Lib Dems, lets hope this is not history repeating itself, David Cameron might be of the mind to let the Lib Dems go use his 306 seats in the new House of Commons to make every vote a vote of confidence for the Government. It would be ironic if New Labour helped destroy the Labour Party at the end.
