Let's see how far we've come since I last asked this....
How long till Brown is gone?
I think Labour will stick with him until the election; they don't really have any good replacements, and few will want to put their careers on the line.
Yes, I think other candidates sense that Labour will probably lose the next election anyway. The party leader who loses the election will have to stand down. On the other hand Labour doing this bad seems to be more out of dissatisfaction with Labour. Brown did do rather wel in the polls for a while last year. So, if there is a new party leader/PM who knows what might happen
