bright

One of the few bright spots of last night's General Election was Bill Esterson, the lad "flown in" from Kent to stand as Labour candidate for Sefton Central, keeping the seat when all the polls pointed to a Conservative victory. I'm made up. My vote counted.

Debi Jones must be pig-sick. The big-headed bitch, so over-confident, ditched her safe council seat in a second attempt to take Crosby. She's failed. Again.

The electorate have made it clear that even if they're fed up of Gordon Brown, they're not particularly willing to get into bed with Cameron.

The current legislation that gives the incumbent party, in the event of a hung parliament, the first chance to form a Government is a little stupid. I've no time for Cameron and his ilk at all, the as they are dangerous, but they are the majority party and should be offered the initial opportunity to make a governing party. I feel Clegg would be more than naive to offer Cameron support - the Lib-Dems have more in common with Labour. But it's such a mess of things at the moment that no one knows what's gonna happen - rightly or wrongly.

I like Gordon Brown, I have a lot of time for him. But the time has come for him to step aside. Probably for David Milliband with Lib-Dem and minority party support. For all our sakes.
