It's been fascinating watching the Crewe & Nantwich by-election campaign. I'm 35 years old and I've never seen the Tories gain a seat off another party at a by-election, but this time it seems like it might happen.
The Labour campaign has been disgusting. Apart from the Tory Toff's element, there has also been the raising of immigration and I read that they were saying that Edward Timpson was a friend of paedophiles because he had defended some in his job as a barrister.
When Labour is defeated on Thursday, the recriminations will fly. It's going to get even more rocky for Gordon Brown. Rumours today said that Alan Milburn is going to challenge for the leadership if Labour do spectacularly badly.
Each week seems to bring bad news for Gordon Brown and Labour. It feels more febrile than the dog days of John Major. How much longer before he is ousted?
Squiffy.
