One other political thing.
Much though I have already said the prospect causes me some trepidation:
In my considered opinion, it is time for a General Election. A party tearing itself to pieces, and winning only 15.3% of the vote in a European election (before the Scottish result, admittedly), has no right or ability to govern, especially in times as difficult as these. Unfortunately for Gordon Brown and ther Labour Party, the firing squad is ready, and the only question left is whether he and his party face it with dignity, or have to be dragged out of the foxhole.
Hard though it is to believe, I think the result of the next election is even more of a foregone conclusion than 1997.
