Haven't seen this anywhere else on here, but it seems that a minister is to give a statement/speech tonight about Winky, I have heard elsewhere that it could be Caroling Flint

As harsh as that is, I agree.

When he finally has a moment of clarity I don't know how he will go on.

8 minutes to go.

Brown needs to stay in power as long as possible, a new labour prime minister would have a better chance at the next general election. The long Brown is PM the deeper Labour dig their grave.

Oh good, another unelected Prime Minister then. I wonder who that might be, Mandleson, Darling, Balls, Milliband, Blears, Harman or one of the other many feckless idiots.


Election now!

James Purnell has resigned now.

Surely Gordon Brown cannot go on for much longer?

Turns out it is a mini plot by the sisterhood, though not a very good one. Hazel was in on it, hence this latest twist. Next up should be Caroline Flint I'm told, who was noticeable on the Treasury bench next to Ms Smith yesterday. Let's see what she does today. Also worth looking out for Siobhan McDonagh, a doughty plotter of long standing who is also in on it I'm told. But who wants to follow them? Anyone? And if they are trying to make a point why not just say so? That's the question.

Agree, Purnell is a Blairite torchbearer.

Brown's finished.

Flint has just been on SKY angrily denying she has any part in any of it.

Question Time might prove interesting this evening - it's in Croydon so, not too far from winkies residence. Perhaps he will pop along and slit his wrists for the cameras. Now that will earn him my respect!
