( It says something fundamental about who Labour are, and its not good. )<br /><br />There is now an undeniable direct conflict between the good of the country and the current government staying in office for another day.<br /><br />Time for Labour party members to put country before party. (I think you'll also find that's the route back into competitive politics for you also.)<br /><br />The people never elected Brown. The bad feeling towards him is incredible to behold ( you perhaps see less of it as people know you are Labour ).<br /><br />Let me put this another way, as I did about a year ago on another site - each month of the current government delays the next Labour government by the same time period.<br /><br />Since this government doesn't have a clue what its for except to survive another day there is no point in it. Hence to bring forward the day when you might hope for a purposeful Labour govt you need to end this rump administration.<br /><br />The current paralysis is destroying the finances of our country - which can only be restored in a number of painful ways. Every day of Brown's government (whose sole purpose is his ego) is more guaranteed pain and suffering for the people of this country due to the failure to act on the massive financial deficient.<br /><br />Of course many of us who want welfare reformed and society improved hope there is never another Labour government. But the pendulum of democracy usually swings.Man in a Shedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990902055642035293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13935904.post-11327858215378802202009-06-05T10:36:23.678+01:002009-06-05T10:36:23.678+01:00Reshuffle seems to be going fine.

Any change should not be before Christmas recess IMO. GE must be next May.<br /><br />Purnell is mired in expenses problems though and this will now come out bigger style. Perhaps he would have been sacked anyway? Hope Burnham stays. Crick said promotion for Flint. Mmmm.<br /><br /><a href="http://tinyurl.com/chrispLOL194" rel="nofollow">I had Purnell, way b4 he went</a>.
