Brown needs the support of the people, else he could develop a bunker-mentality like most prime ministers do, and that's not good for anyone.

 

Unfortunately unless he does something spectacular he won't win approval. A lot of people are scared, jobless and/or angry about the economy. I personally have lost out because of the housing market slump. Not Gordon's fault but people in general see an election as an easy target to kick the government and vent their frustration. An election now would be a Tory landslide.

 

anyone who thinks thoose things would be better under the Tories knows next to nothing about politics, most of thoose problems would probably be alot worse under the Conservatives

I personally do not blame Labour for the economic troubles. It's something that's affecting the whole world regardless of which political party is in charge. At a time like this though an election would be an easy way for the population to kick a government it wants to blame.
