The BLIAR implosion

Cabinet turns on Brown in hunt for 'alternative PM'
<snip>
Gordon Brown's long-held dream of taking over as Prime Minister received a significant blow this weekend after it was revealed that up to 10 cabinet ministers are discussing backing an 'anyone but Gordon' candidate and that Tony Blair will not give the Chancellor a personal endorsement.

Senior government figures are threatening to make the contest a bitter referendum on Brown's personal integrity after last week's vicious bout of infighting. They spent Friday discussing their choice of candidate and the mechanics of a bid after concluding they could no longer support him.

This follows a serious breakdown between the two rival camps, culminating, according to one very close confidant of Tony Blair, in the Prime Minister telling friends: 'I have never known how mendacious he was, how full of mendacity.'

Down they go and it will be sooner than they both think possible

2. They're now scared

<snip>
If there are further public attacks on Brown, a delegation of Labour MPs is said to be prepared to go to Downing Street this week to demand that Blair quit. Downing Street sources stressed Blair had phoned ministers and friends yesterday to demand self-restraint.

This will be fun.

4. Too bad Blair didn't implode before the 04 elections here...

I think it would have made a serious dent in *'s armor then and made it harder for them to steal that election too.

5. Good point but in Parliamentary systems

people are usually seething with anger after year seven.
