Brown will he stay or will he go

Quite a lot is being written about next Labour leaders etc. On political betting they have quite an interesting piece on John Denham. The question that still has to be answered is Brown willing to step down for another.

I have read quite a few books on brown and one thread that run through them all is his love for the Labour party. Will he step down for the good of the Labour party is the one question that still remains unanswered?

One scenario would be for him to limp on until next summer, the European elections which have never been good for Labour. For Brown to be blamed for the defeat, then resign. A new leader to be announced at the party conference. The new leader will announce a general election hoping for a bounce in the polls with a few popular policies.

The people who will drive this will be the marginal MPs. There are many MPs looking at defeat who are dependant on the state and the state apparatus, electoral meltdown will destroy much of the labour party and the Labour party’s political arm.
