Brown and out

He is the biggest disaster ever and now even failed asylum seekers queue to leave Britain

Gordon Brown Can he survive Gordon Brown: Can he survive?

GORDON Brown was all but finished as Prime Minister last night after suffering a May Day massacre in town hall polls.

Labour lost more than 330 council seats as voters delivered their verdict on his record of blunders, dithering, tax rises and crippling increases in the cost of living.

The results were seen as irrefutable evidence that the country is crying out for change.

Sombre Mr Brown confessed to enduring “a bad night” after leading his party to arguably the worst election disaster in its history. Labour polled just 24 per cent of votes cast, putting Tory leader David Cameron on course for a landslide 150-seat majority at the next general election.

There is no crisis

Chief Whip Geoff Hoon

The results sparked mutiny in Labour ranks, with at least 100 MPs and several Cabinet ministers faced with losing their seats. 

Rebel backbenchers gave Mr Brown just six months to survive. But in a staggering display of arrogance and complacency, Chief Whip Geoff Hoon declared: “There is no crisis.”

Mr Brown’s catastrophic premiership has brought Britain so low that even failed asylum seekers are now trying to flee the country, immigration officers revealed last night.
