World: British prime minister Gordon Brown has like zero support
- I now believe your continued leadership makes a Conservative victory more, not less likely. That would be disastrous for our country.
- Work and Sensions Secretary James Purnell • Who, in a very harshly-written letter to the media, asked Gordon Brown to resign. If it were just Purnell doing this, it’d be a big deal, but he’s only the fifth Labour Party member to resign from Brown’s government this week. WTF dude? Can’t you keep it together? Need a hug or something? Labour Party support is at historic lows, BTW. • source
