Looks like the last day they can call an election is Thursday 3rd June, so at most we only have 19 weeks before this shower of sh*t Labour government will be out on their ar5e.

The rumour is that it will be 6th May. The official announcement has to be between the 17th and 21st of April, so we will know for sure by then.

Apparently the Conservative strategists now think that Labour may be laying a trap...

Voters have to wait until the official announcement to know the date, opposition politicians are not really any different so will have to do the same.

Does anyone care? Do you honestly think the colour of the tie the monkey in No. 10 is wearing on the the 4th June will make any difference?

You're going to find the second half of 2010 a bit of a disappointment.

To be fair though, I'd rather suffer at the hands of my kind of people than a bunch of clueless socialists with a proven track record of utter, utter, utter st.

You just know that once the Conservatives are in power, the BBC and much of the press will go into full on criticism mode. The smallest detail will be picked up on, and everything will be laid at the feet of the Conservatives despite the current incumbents failures over the last 12 years.

i love it, the public sector workers or children of them always posting about how it will be no better under anyone else....

can you public sector workers please tell me how i am supposed to pay more taxes to keep you in a job, pay more for a crappy property because your masters want to flip their lavish homes, pay more for goods because your masters have devalued the pound and economy thereby resulting in inflation, get no interest on my miniscule savings, put money in a worthless pension and all of this with a salary cut.....

I wouldn't be surprised if labour party HQ monitors sites like this and has some munchkins in the basement typing away those "how it will be no better under anyone else...." posts.

Tougher on law and order and stopping wasting money/throwing money away at undeserved areas and I won't be too disappointed.

NEWSFLASH 1.
Gordon's election tune will be Canned Heat's famous hit
'Going Up The Country'

NEWSFLASH 2
Gordon Brown has regretfully said he has cancelled the election because of a threat of a terrorist attack. (phew, that was a close one, Gordon).

NEWSFLASH 3
Prime Minister makes announcement.

'Up and down the country we will be explaining to people, up and down the country, our reasons for cancelling the very important election which I am sure people, up and down the country, were expecting us to win.

We will keep people, up and down the country (have I just said that, Peter?) fully informed of what is happening, up and down the country.'

'Thank you, that is all for now.
We will, of course, keep everyone informed, up and down the country, when we can safely advise of a new date next year.'

Isn't there already a local election booked on that day?
If true, then it wouldn't make sense to do it any other day.
