I have no idea of how elections over there work, I was thinking this was due to some kind of scandal or pressure, but apparently, this kid just wants to retire, lol...

Blair has had all kinds of pressure being on the other side of the pond. I wonder what will happen when he does step down...

Maybe he can just get a bunkbed with George in Waco and they can be with each other all day long.

I think George W will give a sigh of relief.
He'll be able to have the fart that Blairs head has been blocking for the last few years.
As for Blair - who knows? - how does a man who's been feeding on GWB shit for so long manage to live on ordinary food?
My main hope is that the Labour party actually manages to go through a formal and properly organised election system for his replacement. Handing it to the worlds most successful professional thief (Chancellor of the Exchequer Brown, for those sensible enough not to follow British politics) on a plate is unbelievably dangerous, immoral, illegal, unethical and just about any other form of incorrect behaviour you can think of.
If the political development of this country goes the way that Brown (a Scottish MP by the way - hoping to rule England? - God help us!!!) would like, then we could well be next on GWB's list of undesirables. (Thinking about it that might be better than the alternative)
AAAAgggghhhh!!!!!!!!!.

I heard that he was being forced to resign and that he really didn't want to. I don't know the validity of that though

7 quit in Blair leadership revolt
Seven people resigned... are they overreacting or what? They keep it up and they're just going to cause more damage than Blair could ever hope to cause...

A BIT of an over-reaction..? Good god, I wonder what'd happen if it were full-blown..? The whole parliament empty? lol

While Beazley is munching on his hamburgers, I don't think lil-bushy-eye-browed Johnny is going anywhere..
Anyway, who believes NEWS POLLS.. cmon, They said Latham was going to win by a landslide last federal election.. did it happen..? No hope in hell..
