From being a lame duck PM to being in with a chance of winning the next election!:huh:

He seems making all the right moves at the moment, but time will tell if they will work!

Time for the opposition to full the finger out!

Firstly to call Gordie Brown a lame duck PM in my opinion is false. Yes he was in the poo poo with the public and the low ratings in opinion polls. Remember tags such as dithering Gordon that gt so much play in the media and by the Torries. But there is plenty of time for either Labour or the Tories to win or loose the next election. Right now I am not impressed with how PM Brown and his ridiculous looking Chancellor Darling have handled the economy. Then again neither am I impressed with the Torie shadow Chancellor George Osbourne whose loose talk on the possible collapse of the GBP £ currency is not what is required in these uncertain times.

Anyway I'm still not a UK citizen yet despite living over here in Buckinghamshire, England for the better part of 6 years. So no chance to vote for any party.
