Man, that title sounds wrong and it isn't entirely accurate. G' Brown hasn't left the house yet although as you will have surely read by now he plans to resign as PM. I hope it isn't the end of the political spectrum for him though, as he did get re-elected and has to face a lot of speck from the media over the last 3 years. To controversially quote, "You really have to ask yourself who controls the media" in these situations and though Mr. (or Dr.!) Brown doesn't possess the most photogenic of smiles and wasn't elected as PM by the people, he has been unlucky by what the world has thrown at him during his period in power. The recession was global, the expenses scandal was uncovered but had been going on for years and the public were getting bored of a labour government; of course he did make mistakes but he really picked a bad time to take up office in No.10. Today as he gave his resignation speech he looked tired, sad and weary. He knew his time was up. Least he'll be able to spend more time with his family now, whenever it is he finally goes and that could be days or months, depending on how likely a Lib-Lab government is.
Dave Cameron has just phoned Clegg with the final details of an offer for a coalition government. Let's see how it all pans out!
