A Labour man, a Brownite to his fingertips with impeccable contacts, approaches me with a spring in his step. Labour believes, he says (and he is right), that it can win again. He offers a prediction and analysis of what lies ahead:
"Brown holds the election, fights on the economy and emerges at the head of the largest party. Vince Cable becomes leader of the Lib Dems, is made Chancellor in a coalition and demands a deal on Proportional Representation which Gordon gives him. PR means the Tories can never win again. Gordon stays as PM for a while and then walks off into the sunset having destroyed the Conservatives."
Next question.Who will be the next PM?
