In case you missed it

Via Mrs Dale, Ladbrokes now have Harriet Harman rather than David Miliband as favourite to take over from GB. Conference was that bad for the man-boy. Odds in full:

3/1 Harriet Harman
7/2 David Miliband
5/1 Jack Straw
8/1 Jon Cruddas
8/1 Alan Johnson
12/1 James Purnell
12/1 John Denham
16/1 Alan Milburn
16/1 Ed Balls
16/1 John Reid
20/1 Andy Burnham
20/1 Ed Miliband
25/1 Caroline Flint
25/1 John Hutton
25/1 Yvette Cooper

If its at least 30-1 "anyone else" that must be worth a punt... would not want any of the above named in charge of the village fete...
Oh lord, whither democracy now? Lets find a benevolent dictator. Or why not run the entire country via Dragons Den - doctors can beg the panel for money to operate on little girls with bandaged heads; villagers can put their case for a bus to town; bankers can ask for money to speculate on oil....
Is it any worse than where we are?

"Oh lord, whither democracy now" - surely the title for a post on your blog, dno?
