Gordon Brown will resign before the next Parliament

Despite all the media shit throwing I will always regard Brown as a decent leader who did the best with what he had.

More people didn't vote for Conservatives that did, either way it's not properly democratic as if everyone has their say we'd get nowhere. That said I want PR and would prefer LibLab to the Tories.

The BNP is a joke, they'll never get more than a few percent support at max, there's no real risk of such a party taking power in the UK anyway.
I actually think Brown wasn't too bad, considering what he had to work with.
I get the feeling he doesn't want to step down, he worked and worked for years to get PM, and now he's pretty much lost it.
But, back on topic;
I'd like a Labour/Lib Dem coalition a hell of a lot more, although it seemed imminent to me from the past few days it would be a Tory/Lib Dem deal. Now I don't know where to go with it again.
Also, I remember hearing that Clegg didn't really want to deal with Brown, but he didn't mind dealing with anyone else, so this is probably why Brown is going to stand down, so that Clegg will have someone else to work with.
Maybe he isn't too sure on the Tory's prospect towards them, but he likes the idea of Labour more, but he wants them to change things around a little.

He looks creepy
Hmm, I would understand this better if I knew British politics a little bit better.
Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister you loved to hate.
We will miss you Brown, we will miss you

I don't find him that strong as a leader, seems a bit dull and weak. Doesn't have the charisma of Blair and Cameron. Suppose Labour don't have many people that I think would good leaders. Could bring Prescott in!
