Unfortunately for Comrade Brown he does not have the total loyalty of the Parliamentary Labour Party and neither he nor his party enjoy widespread public support for the way they have mishandled the Banks and the economy in general. The sooner we have a general election the better for us all. Brown is just clinging on now but its just a question of time and I think we will have an announcement within the next two weeks. The only reason Alan Johnston didnt want the leadership job is because he knows that Labour will lose the next election. My be is that when Labour become her Majestys opposition (assuming they beat the Lib Dems) the Johnston will step forward.
