  Polly Toynbee is not a bad oul stick, Labour needs its writers as there are so few of the breed spouting anything remotely left wing in the national newspapers . This is an interesting piece, very well written of course, with just a tad of the humouresly suicidal. Yes its sad to see Polly Toynbee wash her hands of Gordon Brown. But poor Gordon does stumble through though from one self inflicted disaster to the next. He tries populist moves like the YOU TUBE expenses thing...then the Gurkha thing and each time he falls on his sword scoring spectacular own goals. A PR disaster of prime significance was Joanna Lumley splashed all over the news programmes and the newspapers, posing with both David Cameron and Nick Clegg, the leaders of the other parties...while Gordon slumped off through the lonely corridors of power with egg on his face.
  
  I dont know whats gone wrong at no 10. This present bunch of advisers mustnt be anything like as good as they were in the Tony Blair era. We never had Mr Blair committing hari-kari so badly and so often.
  
  Not only has Polly Toynbee waded in, which is very bad in itself, but so too have former Labour Ministers Blunkett and Clarke. There's nothing quite like kicking a chap when he's down.
  
  Its hard to see labour coming back from here to win.
