Why There Won't Be An Election In 2009

At least, not if Gordon Brown has any sense.

It would annoy no end the very many Labour MPs who are planning to retire, but whose successors have not yet been selected.

  1. And once an election has been called, what exactly do you expect them to be able to do?

  2. Make thoroughgoing nuissances of themselves in the subsequent Parliament, when Brown will have a tiny majority or be leading a minority government.

    I suspect that many Tory MPs had expected to lose their seats in 1992 and so spent five years expressing their annoyance at still having to be there after all.
