Good spot by Tory Bear, this is apparently his first Twitter and is supposedly a genuine reply to Austin Mitchell MP. Get ready, Nick Brown is one of Gordon’s most trusted confidantes…
UPDATE 12.10 : Nick Brown’s Twitter account has been deleted. Think that suggests it was genuine.

Careful – I smell a red Herring !!
Absolutely, don’t trust anything that comes from a Labour MPs mouth. Or Twitter or whatever.
The sooner we have an election and get to kick this rabble out the better though
yeah it would be great to elect a conservative millionaire leader married to a wealthy heiress who claims allowances and won’t commit to an independent external body to review MPs expenses – just the kind of change and transparancy we need
He’d still do a job 10 times better than either Brown or his smarmy predecessor, but I wouldn’t expect you to believe that, as you clearly just look at Cameron and think “he’s rich, I therefore hate him”.
The only acceptable way to get rich these days is to follow in Mummy and Daddy’s nuLabour footsteps and steal it all from the taxpayer. Politics, civil service, quangos, consultants, local government- doesn’t matter, just get yourself in there, head down, stick like shit and fill your boots. If someone rumbles you, accept a pay-off then take up the directorships you were verbally promised by the PFI companies you gave contracts to. Bish bosh.
I don’t hate Cameron *just* because he’s rich. More because he’s a hypocrite with no moral authority at all. Cannot believe what an easy ride he’s being given – his expenses claims were as nauseating as anyone’s.
maybe his defence will be “it just slipped out ” same as when he was caught in the bushes on clappham common?
Why would Cameron be any better than Blair or Brown? He has practically zero experience in anything apart from being a professional PR man for Carlton …
Oh hang on a minute, I just figured it out…
Are you in a changing room with La Blears?
No,that would be an old kipper.
Scatchy!
A red herring, a pink salmon, a purple tuna steak, a fresh white piece of cod, who cares just slam it on the £100 a week MP food expenses.
Meanwhile our elderly are turning up in hospitals with malnutrition.
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/2009/05/13/110-people-died-of-malnutrition-in-scottish-hospitals-last-year-86908-21354326/
Thanks Nick.
I help with the http://nationaldeathservice.blogspot.com/ if you (or any readers) have any more then please drop the link in the comments.
Isn’t the story that they become malnourished while in hospital? The elderly sick often need help eating – or just eat very slowly – and the food can be whisked away before they have a chance to finish, or even start it. Not that you’d want to eat it of course. (I asked a work colleague if the halal food was any better and he mimed vomiting).
I can eat anything except gristle and tripe – but I hardly ate a thing during my last two-day visit to hospital last year (Ipswich). The food was tepid and tasteless – lumpy mash, lumpy custard, everything gross and vile. There’s no excuse for it.
The problem with the ederly is they get very picky and if the food’s not good or what they want, they just don’t eat. Also staff tend to dump it on their over-bed trays – but leave these out of reach! or fail to wake upt eh patient etc. Nursing homes can be jsut as bad – there are maybe three evening staff to help 40 old folk, who all need a bit of time and care. Compulsory single rooms haven’t helped there – it’s more time consuming for the staff, easier to miss people not eating, and old folk like to eat in company with someone to talk to
Let’s hope there will be an election soon – the alternative is more chaos and control-freakery
The proposal to put an ‘independent’ (ha ha) commission above Parliament to creat new rules, and to downgrade the role of the Speaker, is just dreadful.
Parliament MUST remain sovereign and heal itself. It’s had the shock kickstart
Naw – that would mean the fuckers having to work through part of their summer break – can you really see that from that pack of worthless hoons?
Yes, if they think there’s a chance of securing another 4 or 5 years of troughing at our expense. Should think lots of MPs are keen on this – too soon for much more scrutiny of expenses, with a handy five year gap to get back to business as usual.
What we need, of course, are open primaries for candidates in all seats, including those with sitting members – that would ensure the buggers are kept sharp.
Is there any way that Comrade Brown would willingly face the Labour Party Conference. The delegates would make the treatment of the Speaker look like a love in. There are also the small matters of the European Elections and the by-election in Martin’s Glasgow seat, both of which could well lead to our Beloved Leader being ousted by his hoonerable colleagues.
Please be true….
Are you sure it’s Nick Brown MP and not some version of GuidOaf Orcs?
Hi Dolly!
Changed your name again MB? You really should see someone about that multiple personality disorder – maybe a proper psychotherapist could help you.
What? Like this chap, you mean?a>
Let’s hope so :-)
Election petition http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/GoToCountryNow/
Maybe Gord has decided, if he’s gonna go, he’ll take the rest of the PLP with him
I doubt it. Nick Brown is sure to lose his seat at the next election. The troughing twat will want to hold on as long as possible.
Mind games!
Don’t be so bloody daft.
The fat thug Brown is about as adept at this cybercomms stuff as Dolly Draper!
The daft c.unt didn’t realise it public and not 1-2-1 messaging!
Shouldn’t that be twatter, not twitter.
The twitter account has just been created and this is its ownly tweet. I call fake.
http://www.twitter.com/nickbrownmp
Nick Brown a fake? No change there then.
Good spot Unseen – it’s his first ever post to that site, so it’s quite possibly a fake designed to get people like us lot talking about it!!
You could be right but I think the thick Hoon has probably got no idea of weeks, moths, years. You ascibe him too much sentience.
You could be right but I think the thick Hoon has probably got no idea of weeks, months, years. You ascribe him too much sentence. [sic]
It doesn’t make sense. Why give Brown the opportunity to bottle another election?
The picture in the profile is, however, titled “me.jpg” – well actually me_bigger.jpg.
Unlikely that you would cull a picture from a web site and call it me?
Of course you might keep the file name the same…
but then again.
If you hover over the same picture (well, an uncropped version of the same pic) at Nick Brown’s website, it says “Gordon Brown”…
The twitter page no longer exists….
If only all things liebore would vanish so easily.
Yes. Gordon Brown. Why?
Presumably this June 21st date for Martin’s official P45 and elevation to the HoL is the start of the summer recess which lasts until about October. A few weeks in the job and its Christmas. Another few weeks and it’s Easter and election time anyway.
So it can be true that the new Spekaer will only have a few weeks in the job before an election without it meaning what we’d like it to mean.
So perhaps the “deal” was fall on your sword for ‘unity’ an Election will be called BEFORE the date you announce (and all that would be discussed and sorted). Meaning he will go to the end of this parliament and get his golden parachute. Troughing to the end. Martin in the Dissolution Honours!!
Careful – with that kind of underhanded manipulative deceitful thinking, you might end up in government…
Well thanks for that…. I think Wimbledon would suit.
Is this ‘not rewarding failure’ in action? What a bunch of c.unts.
So the speaker will be going to the Lords because it is tradition. Well its not tradition to be booted out of the job and its not tradition to run a crime syndicate from that post. As HE has broken with tradition he deserves NOTHING so let us kick his fat lard arse back over the border never to return.
Sadly this ‘tradition’ is just another example of the ‘arse about face’ Orwellian, pre-planned broken society we live in – black is white; good is evil, love is hate, fiddling is mandatory etc.
Now the scapegoat and fiddler in chief has gone – Brown and Blears etc have to be next.
The ego is the problem – stop all this fancy dressing up and awarding medals for power and live like a sovereign and responsible human being – not a ‘person’ or ‘citizen’.
If HMQ can do nothing else, couldn’t she at least refuse to ennoble this useless greedy placeman?
I can think of another tradition – it involves a wooden post in the backyard of the INjustice Ministry,a blindfold and a bullet.
the recess date is 21 July.
That means there is a month for the new Speaker to settle in, change the curtains – again – and pop off for a nice holiday before returning for a miserable year where the only question worth knowing the answer to is: what date is the general election?
It is what I said on previous posts.
That they will have discussed the situation in Cabinet. Martin scape oated, Blears next. A few sacrificial lambs from the PLP and then to the country hoping that the spin of a firm leader in difficult times will wash.
So they are hoping the main level of troughers will get back in on the safe seats from a gulliblepublic.
Won’t work though. There’s much, much more shit to come.
My money is still on an October election. God, I wish they could all lose.
October election – heading for winter – is much more likely to be a disasterous call for a sitting party. Why would he do that unless economic outlook is far worse by Spring 2010 (The very reason he, perhaps, ought to have declared last Autumn but decided against it).
He won’t go until May earliest (unless he’s forced) with hope that outlook is better and he has an Ace up his sleeve to attack the Tories.
Beware: Red Rag was being set up as an election attack tool. The McPoison and their likes are only lying low at present.
No way will Broooooown call a General Election after the EP disaster brewing for next month. All three mainstream parties are going to get a huge “Two finger” jobbie from the electorate then.
Even most Westminster Tories would rather be in opposition for another year rather than out on their ear.
PLUS, if he calls it too close to the June elections he will lay himself open to charges of wasting even more money. If he was going to call a GE why didn’t we all vote on the same day? June 5th or whenever it is. Instead of organising the whole panto again a few weeks later.
Remember how he was making political capital out of David Davis triggering a by-election. Waste of money he said. Aye, and apart from borrowing and squandering 200bn this year holding another election a few weeks after the coming ones will likewise be a waste of money.
I’m pretty sure there can only be two elections on one day
Doesn’t add up. They all go off on their hols in July.Unless its a cunning plan.
Labour loose a July election,Tories win and get no summer holiday as they would be very busy cleaning up the shit left by Brown and the NuLabor numpties,who are off on their holidays
Yes, but have you factored in that he’s off his f*cking nut ?
My old mum used to say to me that a madman thinks that everyone’s mad but himself.
I’m orf to South Africa with my girls and my dogs in July, and I’m not coming back.
The cunn(t)ing mentalist has proved me wrong already. He’s just announced that he has full confidence in his gurning chipmunk. So he’s not even going to throw us a token scapegoat.
This is the new, trans parent (G Brown) politics – where nothing changes.
It was only last week that he offered Speaker Martin his full support – it’s the kiss of death.
He’s got no choice. If you’ve ever been to Salford you’ll know that the place is overrun with gobby ginger midgets who refuse to vote for anyone over 2ft 6. How do you think
Red Dwarf got elected in the first place?
If anyone mentions Red Dwarf, smeg and smoking a kipper in the same sentence, I’ll vomit. Oops..
Off topic, but….
“An MP has very nearly talked himself into supporting today’s “Perverts Wear Purple” day – by accident.
Exactly what is a fetish…?!?
And it could hardly have happened to a less likely politician: Ronnie Campbell, one of the most down-to-earth and decent men in the Commons.
The64-year-old former miner and Labour Member of Parliament for Blyth Valley was approached and asked to wear something purple to support National Fetish Day. He said he would wear a purple shirt.
Unfortunately, no one had told Ronnie what the word “fetish” means.
He thought it meant “worry”, rather than indulging in kinky/unusual sexual activities, often involving rubber, bondage, sado-masochism and the rest (assuming there’s more!).
When local newspaper the Sunday Sun explained this to poor Ronnie, he said he thought the word meant: “Worry, like worrying about backing the wrong horse.”
“Oh my God Almighty, my God, is that what a fetish is?” the astonished and no doubt highly-embarrassed MP exclaimed.
Before being told what the word means, Mr Campbell was asked if he had any fetishes.
Thinking it meant worries or concerns, he said: “I must have a thousand but, hand on heart, I couldn’t tell which is the most important one. Probably the horses.”
One of the event’s organisers, who had approached Mr Campbell, goes by the pseudonym (or nom de guerre?) of “Pierced Knight” because he says to reveal his identity would ruin him professionally.
The National Fetish Day is part of a campaign against pornography laws.
Somebody please buy the member for Blyth Valley a dictionary”
Note his most important worry is “probably the horses”. No wonder he is a top trougher then. Unfortunately, in Blyth this probably goes down well.
I think you’re on the wrong blog if you think most of the readers will care in the slightest about fetishism.
It sounds exactly the right blog. Many of the contributors seem incapable of posting a message without a reference to homosexual practices.
If he doesn’t know what the word means what’s he doing as an MP? Or is stupidity a pre-requisite for the job.
Ah! I think I may have answered my own question.
These bloggers will believe any shit I feed ‘em!
Yep, we’re taking it all on board in preparation for the little soiree we have planned that involves you,a nice sturdy piece of rope, a lamp post and an elevated stage with a trapdoor.
As one of your constituents, I will be feeding it back to you at the next election.
I wish you wouldn’t raise my hopes like this.
I was all prepared to open a bottle and celebrate then reality kicks in and I realise that the changes of Brown leaving Downing Street before he absolutly has too are nil.
Unless he’s taken out in a straight jacket, foaming at the mouth and claiming ‘it all began in America’
Hang on, I don’t know why he’s getting all excited – surely Nick Brown troughing away at £18,000 worth of food (without receipts) at our expense means he won’t be eligible to stand at the next election for Labour??
Gordon Brown told us so yesterday, in no uncertain terms….
….unless old Gordon’s going to turn around and tell us that technically “it was within the rules”!? What a fucking twat, he deserves all the shit that’s surely coming his way.
Just follow the white rabbit my friend, know what I mean?
heh – last time I took the red pill, I lost the best part of a week…
Ode To Brown:
Snot control to Nicky Brown

Snot control to Nicky Brown
Commencing countdown, Election’s on
Check polling and may Greek love be with you
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
Four, three, two, one, Postal votes
This is Snot control to Nicky Brown
You’ve failed to make the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you lift
Now it’s time to leave No 10 if you dare
This is Nicky Brown to Snot control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m talking in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a battlebus
In my own little world
Timney’s on the throttle
And there’s nothing I can’t bottle
Though Im past one hundred thousand on the petition
Im feeling Mandelson
And I think my driver knows which way to go
Tell me wife I’ll shake her hand – she knows
Snot control to Nicky Brown
Your circuits dead, theres something wrong
Can you hear me, Nicky Brown?
Can you hear me, Nicky Brown?
Can you hear me, Nicky Brown?
Can you….
Here am I floating round my padded cell
Far above Cowdenbeath
Government is blue
And there’s nothing I can do.
Love it
A modestly polished and improved lyric at Tuscan Tony
I can reveal that a few weeks is about 49 in NuLab speak.
O/T but wouldn’t Elizabeth Filkin be a good person to be in charge of any external policiing of parliament and it’s expense, probity,etc
he deserves all the shit that’s surely coming his way.
OOOO Lucky Nick Brown
Yep, sorry Nick Brown but that is very poor trolling, 1/10.
Also, for some reason I can’t trust anything anyone says, whose last name is Brown.
WHOOOP WHOOOP GED DOWN BRO’
We need to get the whole lot of Browns out now.
:)
A few weeks is a long time in politics.
Get the whiskies in you daft sod. Sobering stuff reading this after Guido’s stellar performance on Nicky Campbell this morning.
No wonder he doesn’t do oral communications – tricky with 18 grand in yer gob
Only one tweet? Were it the real Nick Brown it would be filled with stuff along the lines of I’m just eating cake, I’m just eating more cake, Someone has just called be a fat sweating turd, I’m just eating a pork pie…
Can’t imagine even Nick Brown would be stupid enough to send a message like this in such a public manner.
Classic misinformation. Like the corpse the allies left on a beach with fake invasion plans for Pas-de-Calais, Nick Brown being the corpse.
[...] This post was Twitted by RobmDyson – Real-url.org [...]
You suckers fall for it every time. Great idea, Derek!!
As a resident of Westminster, I feel Brown should pay a special rate for his waste water usage to Westminster Council.
He eats and therefore craps for three people.
Perhaps in our great and dearly beloved Scotch mental’s twisted, hate filled mind he wants to visit a scorched earthy policy on the PLP.
Call an erection and see how many of the ungrateful scum scrabble back in.
But on second thoughts he clearly will cling to the trappings of power until the removal men are trying to carry his chemical toliet out of No10 with him still sat on it.
nickbrownmp does not exist on Twitter
Not anymore, that’s the second part of the con, pull it quick once it’s been spotted to give it some credence.
Better trolling Nick Brown 2/10 but no cigar.
Acct’s back up, but locked – possible double-bluff for more credence…?
With a spate of court cases against labour Mps likely to start later on this year, it makes no sense at all for bunker brown to delay calling an election . I’m with papa smurf on this, an election will be called just before June 21, so that the Twpsyn Tew( that’s Welsh for Fat Idiot) can gain his golden parachute by serving to the end of a parliamentary term. Just think of all the dirt he could dish up on the bunker if that were not the case!
And how do you suppose Wales could be independent in the EU?
Labour will get back in when the Springburn by-election result is declared.
Already, the scumbag pals of Mick Fartin are playing the religion card, (Caflick) which is akin to Lard Ahmed playing the race card for his gullible adherants, and slyly tieing that to an anti English/ Class spin.
So it is the English Toffs (aka Lord Snooty) doing him down, because he does not speak proper and somehow their is a “masonic” element pulling the strings.
Already we have had the senior RC clergyman Archbishop Mario Conti breaking cover
One of Scotland’s most senior Roman Catholic clergymen has criticised MPs for “hounding” Michael Martin out of his job as Commons Speaker.
Bet he wouldn’t have said that if the Speaker had been a Humanist.
This will be the line, thumped home by Pravda Central Scotland, aka BBC Scotland, and the dead tree press united.
Martin was the Scapegoat so don’t let the Tories Toffs win; Return the onkey with the red rosette and all will be well.
Already the Glenrothes tactic is being rehearsed; SNP certainty, Labour given up the ghost, etc and then wait for the postal votes to be filled in.
It is as plain as the ineptitude of Speaker Fartin that SLab will retain this seat because the sheeple will be lining up to be fleeced and will really believe they are doing the right thing.
Sad but I will wager a Twenty spot on at it at the bookies and I recommend you all do so too.
No one in England cares whether MPs are Catholics or Protestants or Jedi Knights. We just want them not to be useless, idle, greedy, stupid, self-important lackwits.
Beware for which you wish, for Gordon could get re-elected.
Quite. If only Catholics were allowed to practise contraception, Gorbals might never have occurred.
Nor would have Tony Blair, retrospectively.
Twitter? Twatter might be more appropriate….
Either a hoax or nickbrownmp deleted his account PDQ – cos it ain’t there now!
I really hope this is true. McBroon was rabbiting about an election being chaos. Explained that chaos referred to a Tory government. And Cameroon had him. McBroon has utterly lost it, giving an open goal to Cameroon like that.
Brown will announce the Election at the Party Conference in September but before the Tory one to maximise the “chaos” – that is why Martin’s by-election is/was scheduled for September too
That’s why this Zanu-Labour bunch are unfit to rule.
They only organise for their benefit and never think about the country.
Gordon Brown doesn’t know anything about courage.
People seem to have missed the point that by admitting the electorate will vote in Cameron and the Tories, but refusing them the choice until forced to, McBroon is yet again revealing his contempt for the people and for democracy. He KNOWS we want him out – but he knows best what is good for us! The hoon.

“UPDATE 12.10 : Nick Brown’s Twitter account has been deleted. Think that suggests it was genuine.”
not necessarily. Twitter deletes fake accounts quickly. So we still don’t know.
Moley’s just had a gent from TV licensing at the door.
He wanted to see my television, but I did not let him in.
Wonder what they will try next.
Tell him that the TVLA are banned from your property and he is trespassing. Start to call the police.

You lefties out there, newlabour has fucked you over, you know it to be true!

If they are female
Nick Brown claims without receipts, and gets paid, now how can that be legal.
Disslving Parliament in July for an election in August?
Perfect cover for an increase in postal votes, because of course lots of voters, real and fake, will need to postal vote because they’ll be on their holibobs.
What a cunning stunt!
STOP IT.
I KNOW Nick Brown, or did (NOT in THAT way). He was ALWAYS scruffy and fat. The massive claims for food in Newcastle have NOT added to his bulk. I REPEAT he was ALWAYS the size his is now.
Then again you really WOULD have to be nearly resident in the upmarket restaurants on Newcastle Quayside to spend THAT much. Even now such restaurants are significantly cheaper than London so makes it even worse.
He is NOT very intelligent either so I’m not at all surprised he “dropped a bollock” on twitter.
Makes you think though. IF our legislators are SO effing useless what RIGHT do they have to be in Government
MY relationship with Brown? Well I was a very senior Local Government Officer when HE was an insignificant union official and an almost invisible councillor – until he became an MP that is . Local Labour people who had ambitions were appalled when he was selected.
MY personal views but almost “from the horse’s mouth”. YOU decide.
Let us just say that ONE very prominent Labour grandee was rewarded with a knighthood to assuage his disappointment. HE was a contender for the selection as MP and was MUCH more intelligent than Mr Brown.
Regards Sir Jeremy!!!!
My view is “from the horse’s bottom”.
william Waad
Are you saying I am talking shit?
If so I challenge you Sir. Parliament Square tomorrow 2:00pm! if we can shft the Tamils To the victor the spoils.
(not really I ain’t gong to spend £200 to get to London!)
He’s fat because he’s full of sperm
Politicians are possibly the least technically minded profession. Remember when Harriet Harman’s password to her blog was ‘harman’. I mean, seriously, we are dealing with the most retarded class of people with regards to this kind of thing.
I think it’s entirely plausible that this MP thought this was a private message that would not be read by anyone else.
Not just ‘this kind of thing’ – more or less any thing
Nick Brown allegedly had a huge row with Gordon Brown weekend before last over when and what he knew about potentially criminal expense activity by Labour MPs; it wouldn’t surprise me if this were him getting revenge.
From my point of view even the sky looks Brown.
Summer election? Or not?
The Nick Brown Twitter is a red herring. On two counts. If it genuinely was him, then he was posting a false info to just get the likes of us all of a flutter.
It may well be that it was not him and that itr was a spoof. (its a spoof either way)
Glasgow East was held on July 24th 2008 and Labour lost, so not a good omen.also having a general election so close to the euro election, just would not happen. The earliest would be about 3 months after the euro’s, so that puts it in September 2009
The Glenrothes by election was in November 2008 and was only called after a protracted period stretching over the summer recess.
It is likely that Labour will not hold a by election for Glasgow North East until September at the earliest, but that leaves about 8 months at the most between By election and General election.
So I think Labour will go for a general election in September or October 2009 and not have the need for a by election
Well thats my thinking
How Brown thinks’ is another matter, as it all depends on the tarot cards…
Tarot cards? What have they got to do with postal votes? They had longer to ensure the correct result at Glenrothes.
Like a previous despotic dictator, I would be surprised if Brown consults a fortune teller the best time to have an election. As for Postal votes, are these not in the bag anyway (Labours big bag of dodgy postal ballot papers that is)
Whats the context of this twitter post? Can we 100% exclude the by election? Dont know why it would be about that but would be nice to see the full conversation just to be sure theyre not talking about the House of Commons Star Trek Club
Austin Mitchell says its a fake too… him I would believe.
http://www.austinmitchell.org/
Brown will never call an election that he thinks he may lose, he couldn’t call an election even when he thought he would win. There will be a general election only when the constitution will command it, Brown is a coward.
I think youll find he is clinically insane
Hee hee gulp, state of emergency, grin, economic crisis and top secret terrorism intelligence warnings, simper gulp, no need for an election, convulsive jerk of shoulders, editorial advice to BBC, twitch, I am for ever, rictus, it’s the right thing to do for hardworking families, gulp, arrest Cameron under new independent code, ha ha wibble.
Would definately appear to be a fake
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/05/20/chief_whip_tweet/
If Nick Brown just joined twitter today, how did torybear become one of his first friends?
Why was one of his first tweets to another fake Labour MP twitter account which has only existed for 3 weeks?
How did he manage to tweet “from the web” when he was in the Commons chamber?
Guido, you are dafter than you look if you actually believe that this is genuine.
Batemans Pub in Peterborough – The Palmerston Arms, Woodston, the £3 pint is here to stay….RIP
Don’t know if anyone has picked up on the suggestion that The Daily Telegraph is now to turn its attention to the House of Lords? On the This Mogodon show on ITV this morning.. They had a couple of hacks from the Telegraph, the one with bad skin and an even worse Grecian 2000 hair color job and home tinted eyebrows (Never works under studio lights, tried it,why do you think Schofield has gone silver?) Brillo is another one.. Whatever is happening with his current batch of hair weave plugs, turf? Better he ceremoniously razored the whole lot off for charity..
But back to the date of the Election. It’s going to take a few weeks to get the new man/woman in place. Calling the election date on the last day of Gorbals tenure would be neat.. Esta Rancid for Speaker would be good, bossy cow and knows all the right people. Cracks a mean whip. But small point, she has to get elected first.
PMQ’s this morning, the atmosphere was exactly like a wicked and slightly naughty Hogwarts and Brown seemed to be really unprepared. Cameron launched his pleas for an immediate General Election and calling one in the next few weeks might just be on the cards for the following reasons:
1. The new labour scrutiny committee will be half heartedly grilling backbench naughty Labour MP’s. Cameron will be more ruthless, a quick chat and its off you go..resign with dignity or stay on with difficulty and Plod stamping all over your estate. Poking in the Moat – you get the idea.
2. Some will jump ship and sign up with Cameron and Cleggy.
3.If Broon dumps or cuts loose Blears, she will immediately sign up with a Red Top, high speed ghost write the book and do a long withering exposure on Brown ” One Swine Flew Over the Nokias”
4. Back benchers and those on small majorities no longer respect the Whips and might even dump the party and re-appear as independents.
5. Right wing Police factions might just rack up the investigatiion a few notches to take the spotlight off the G20 crowd control shambles ..
6. The Tamils outside are unlikely to give up on their demo so what better time to get out on the stump, away from Westminster and face off the electorate, as the next few elections will be about personalities and not parties.
7.
