It just shows that two Eds are not necessarily better than one.

A challenge then barryw;
a fiver to a charity
on who is in number 10 after next general election (not including co olitions)
The only saviour for the conservatives will be UKIP joining them, if they don't it will be Labour

Last sentence true, Keith. Proves that a thumping majority of the electorate don't want Labour anywhere the levers of power again.

I think that is a fairly safe bet Keith, I mean the bit about the .exclusion of coalitions, as I believe that will most probably be the result, Tory and UKIP or Labour and LibDems.

Jan;
If Barryw is so confident that Labour won't manage it then its not such a safe bet,
but without doubt im willing to put my dosh where my mouth is and offer the fiver to charity.
now, to move on to desperate politics, in reality labour, or the tories, or lib dem, or UKIP could well make a combination to hold one or other party in control.
Labour in desperation to get into number 10 would probably sell its soul to get there and go in with lib dems, but that said the lib dems are likely not to be a force after the gen election, wont have that many MP's.
UKIP also has to make itself seen as more than a one policy party.
Conservatives have lost faith with the electorate and its own members.
So it is all to play for, and co olition will probably be the outcome,
im willing if that's the outcome to donate a fiver to pilgrims hospice!!

i wouldn't be too quick to write off the yellows, they will probably split from the coalition before the election and reassert themselves.
not forgetting that many outlying parts of the country want nothing to do with the main parties and identify with a third party.

Anybody see Liam Byrne on Sky News this morning?
Yep, the bloke who left a note saying "the money's all gone" is doing an about turn.
Under the spotlight Labour will flounder, they are clueless

I saw him David, he seemed unable to grasp what Eamonn Holmes was asking him regarding the note he left, or maybe as a seasoned politician he just chose not to understand.
