What a sore loser for losing the election! Haha

Really don't care who the new Labour leader is - the majority of politicians these days speak the same words - crap.

Hardly a sore loser. He did it for a reason and a good reason at that. <_<

Obviously I'm joking.
What I found most intresting was the following from Sky News. It never dawned on me the effect this politcal hype would have on the country's economy.

Moments after Mr Brown's announcement, the pound fell more than a cent against the dollar.
Sky News political editor Adam Boulton said: "There is a cabal in Number 10, basically playing politics with the country's future

I'd be happy with a marxist at the helm, obviously this won't happen.

Not many people were fond of conservatives before David Cameron. Its him and the "new look" which got him so popular against a tired looking person.

Shame really, he has done a lot and people tend to dwell of the negatives more than the positives. Fair play to him for pushing forward the stability of the government and the policies that his party want. He said before the election he'd resign if Labour failed to get into government, but I wasnt expecting it now. I dont think Labour has anyone else that could step up to be a good PM.

It's because the negatives far outweigh the positives.

Yeh, the impact of a hung parliament will be pretty massive on our economy. Surely the media should have been telling people that but obviously not.

I personally think Brown did some good things within his time. I'd like to see how you'd fare governing the country and doing a better job ;P
