Not much to report this morning, Ming has hinted that the Huhnie monsters could have been behind his demise. Huhne himself is expected to launch his campaign today. The Cleggies are texting all and sundry - Shane Greer has a screenshot of the hastily hidden, soon-to-be launched Clegg campaign site.Some are speculating that the 29 year-old Julia Goldsworthy might run as a marker for the future. So after arguing for 18 months that age (he was 66) and experience (of sprinting) trumped looks and charisma, they could switch to a photogenic reality TV show contestant as leader - Julia is 40/1 on Betfair. Excellent idea, it couldn't be any worse...
UPDATE : A co-conspirator says she has told her local rag she definitely won't be running. Boo.
UPDATE II : John Hemming, who has confirmed he wants to run, is a mere 180 /1 on Betfair. He tells Guido he expects to get 5 nominations already!
UPDATE III : Vince Cable has ruled himself out this morning. Telling Nick Robinson that given "the current irrational prejudice about age... an older candidate is not electable". Rationally, the 64 year-old slaphead is almost indistinguishable from Ming to voters.UPDATE IV : Steve Webb says he has enough nominations, but is coming over all coy and pretending he is not sure if he really wants to run.

Wouldn't want to bump into her in a dark alley. Too scary.
photogenic?!!!
Have you lost your glasses again Guido? And are you going to join up again to get a vote?
Who cares?????
On a more serious note: the BBC just reported that last month over a million people paid their mortgages and their fuel bills WITH A CREDIT CARD!
It looks like Gordon Brown's so-called "economic miracle" is rapidly falling apart.
Sorry? Who are these people?
Guido has them reaching for their dumbelles again :-)
Sorry to spoil your day Guido but Julia Goldsworthy has told the Western Morning News that she has absolutely no intention of throwing her hat into the ring!
All this Lib Dem stuff is only mildly interesting at this stage. Cable's appearance at PMQs is on the undercard to the main event. Today I am more interested to see whether "Dave" can follow-up on last weeks demolition job or whether it was just a flash in the pan. The e-petition seems to have run out of steam over the weekend -under 15K signatures after a very good start which looks like a bit of a missed opportunity.
I hope Cameron digs in with the broken EU referendum promise
Guido please drop the LibDums rubbish nobody cares,how about something on the Beeboids getting the chop or more important treaty/referendum ,I think that's why the obesity is being shoved at us for the second day.
PMQs - covering the Great British sellout to the EU?
Pleased to see Totty coverage has resumed. It would be nice if the Lib-dems chose a good-looking gal with a few brains - fat chance though, with Huhne and Clarke having already dispatched two leaders!
Give us a break Guido, who cares about the useless Lib Dems - who they? and find your glasses and give us something better looking than that Ninja Turtle lookalike you've got up right now.
Guido - seriously, you are giving too much space to this Lib Dem stuff. Who cares?
Just give us an update in December.
Paul - all very interesting and fascinating, but when I click on the montage of m'lordship's robe and the money-bags on the right of your page to check the progress of your cash4prosecution initiative I get "No input file specified".
I know you haven't forgotten about this fantastic initiative, but let's not give that impression - eh?
Regards,

Latest statement from John "On canvassing a fifth of the parliamentary party I would get one nomination. That - extrapolated - would imply I would get five nominations which is two short of the seven required.
As a consequence I will continue arguing for my position statement, but logically need to consider whose campaign to support."
oooh! Tom 11:48 how brave and insightful you are. Try and keep up, love.
Goldsworthy is aiming for Deputy. What a ticket -- a Female Deputy, sexy good looking ,youthful ,fit and up for anything. Just enough to drive the Cornish crazy. The Cornwall Conservatives are shitting themselves as they thought they had the cornish seats in the bag. How a week is a long time. A new youthful Clegg will stimulate the cornish voters. The
Cornish PPCs are a bit dower and not totty.
This is a classic, Guido !!! He had the audacity to tell Kirsty Wark on Newsnight the other night that his age was certainly not a barrier to him standing..
Priceless..
PMQs
Cameron - Brown
Score draw on Health Service
Re: referendum
Nice gag about Gisela Stuart being sent for re-education.
Cameron sounding a bit tired. Brown sounding like his Steve Bell cartoon.
Who would have thought that the backwoods of Cornwall could influence the shape of politics because of sex. The hapless former gay tory and defeated Ashley Crossley used the Gay card against its classical members and lost. His triumphant Lib Dem opponent Julia Goldsworthy can use femine sexuality to win for the Libs. And we are now seeing a replay on the National stage. And who said Cornwall was not with it!
Another drubbing for Brown, tongue-tied and stuttering with an unappealing malicious air.
Brown's been killed again in another PMQs
Julia Goldsworthy MP should not get carried away when the comment is made of a 'nice pair of tits'.
The reference is made to Nick Clegg and ginger bollocks.
I must have been watching a different event cos from what I saw Brown got out with barely a scratch. A very unimpressive follow up to last weeks performance
Goldsworthy is now 14:1 at Ladbrokes. Amazing what a nice pair of Tits can do.
16.1 NOT BAD WHEN YOU ARE ALSO GROPING A PAIR OF DUMB BALLS IN YOUR HANDS.
rocker
You missed the point where Brown blamed his 'lack of investment' in the Health Services for its current problems then?
Another week another suicidal gaffe from the magnificently dire Brown!
Did you slippery Cameron and Smarmy osbourne refusing to explain why he did not vote for increased spending on helath care. As for BBC pro labour bais. What a piloe of crap. The newsnight bbc politcal correspondent said cameron won that deabte. What a load of crap. He gave up on health and then went back to crap on the EU.
I was watching the same as Rocker 1:07
Brown was the bully today and he got away with it. He paid scornful tribute to Ming Campbell of teh "Liberal Party" and Vince Cable swallowed it, thanking Brown for his "gracious" words.
Cameron has to stick at the jugular that "no one can trust you - you've broken your promises."
He had a go, referring to "lies" viz NHS, but was quite tame in front of the open goal.
Slippery Mr Cameron refuses to answer any of Browns points. With line line hold an election what cop put. This is the sort of dishonesty that made that TV company make him a PR man.
A perplexed Michael Crick picked up on the Brown's 'lack of investment in the Health sevices ' gaffe on the Daily Politics.
Someone should compile a book of Brownisms, he's becoming as bad as Dubya.
So the tories will get rid of the viris problme without spending money more PR bullshit. You donlt have to be a coke smokin idiot to be a tory but it helps.
Did you notice how both Tory, LibDem and even Labour backbenchers burst into howls of laughter when Vince Cable told that joke about Brown being a happily married man!!
Ooohh, Vince, I'll scratch yer eyes out, you bitch!!!!
Brown appears ill prepared, or does he just lose the plot under pressure in the Commons?
Michael Crick prooves the point that labour party is not por labour bias. It is going to cost money to get rid of the virus. But Crick gives some ridiculous comment that indicates he thinks it can be gotte n rid of for free, More tory bias from the BBC. Mr Cric gave an opinion not fact.
Someone should tell Brown that snarling doesn't work when you can't stop stuttering!
Brown is a happily married man. They all burst out laughing cos it was a bizzare thing to say. Mr Crick has proved the BBC is biased to Cameron. Crick seems to think his opinions are fact. Then he said Brown lost what aload of BS. Brown won. Cameron was made to look slippery.
Only sick paedoes think cable was insinuating anyhting offensive. Same old sick tories looking for a desperate way to attack.
Why do the daily politcis say cameron won what aload of crap. Cameron got his buttocks owned by skinner let alone Brown.
poisonous slippery V Stalinist ruthlessness: said...
Slippery Mr Cameron refuses to answer any of Browns points.....
It's "Prime Ministerr's" Questions you dumb fuck! That means Cameron asks the questions and your lying snot-eating pal Brown is supposed to answer.
Here's some advice little boy, stop showing what a thick ignorant little tosser you are. Yesterday you even thought someone had "hacked" your computer FFS. Haven't you humiliated yourself enough already?
zzzzzzzzzz
What virus is this? BBC bias? It won't cost money to get rid of that...in fact it might be a nice little earner.
Oh, you were meaning _bacteria_?
Cable was right. Everyone knows Brown's marriage is a sham designed to assist his political ambitions. Brown should just be honest before someone outs him.
Oh show it is OK to be slippery as it is ask the pm a question you don't know the answer too. Brown whipped Cameron's buttocks today. Cameron won't be bale to sit down for a month.
I see all the gay fantasists from tory party HQ are on the site. I am not homophoic but just cos your gay does not mean everyone else is. Brown is so heterosexual he woul;d even do Widdecombe and then make love to Mrs Thacther.
just a reminder to everybody to ignore "poisonous slippery V Stalinist ruthlessness:" again
No wonder Mrs Tacher had a smile on her face after that visit to the PM. Let's just say she took a bit more than cup of tea inside of her. Brown took out all his fristration has the way tory party destroyed the north and Mrs Thacher was heard to say rejoice rejoice rejoice, and then said that reverse of her famous of Common speach Yes Yes Yes.
Rocker:" Brown got out with barely a scratch"
And the polls had nothing to do with him cancelling the election, right?
Time for the troll to grow up, his posts add nothing of interest.
Saying Brown is gay is as ridiculous as claiming that Mark Oaten eats rent boy's shite or that Simon Hughes is bisexual.
credibility gulf 1:41pm
no but that's last week's news
(Might have been better if Cameron had just repeated it)
@poisonous:
"Brown is so heterosexual he woul;d even do Widdecombe and then make love to Mrs Thacther"
when previously you said:-
"Brown whipped Cameron's buttocks today. Cameron won't be bale to sit down for a month."
So are you gay or is it just Brown?
By the way - you need typing lessons.
voice of reason 1:45
Hardly - has anyone got an interview of Gordon's partners? (Mark Oaten's suppliers are on record)
Vince Cable's only been stand-in LibDem leader for 2 days but already he's outed Gordon Brown as a closet gay with a sham marriage thus creating a political scandal which could lead to Gay Gordon having to stand down.
How can Nick Clegg or Chris Huhne better that?
I propose Vince Cable for leader!!
Mr Brown carved Mr Cmaeron a new one today. I am sure Mr Hague, and Mr Arsecroft will find a use for it. I do not need typing lecdtions.
I can think of a better scandal. tory bosses find dandruff. Plenty of buttock pumping goes on ion the snow palace.
Presumably Cable thinks being head of the Liberals is no big deal, which is why being 72 at the end of the NEXT 5 years of government after this one doesn't bother him. I suppose those that opposed him laughably still believe they might hold the balance of power in a hung Parliament.
Dodgyjaw again repeated the lie that Cameron was the "economic adviser" to Norman Lamont, rather than a special adviser.
Has it got nothing new to say?
Since, (with a couple of umlauts), Huhne is a German chicken, is that image going to haunt this man?
It unthinkable that anybody unshaggable could become a sucessful leader of a political party , and that Goldsworthy dog is unshaggable.
Speaking as a confirmed heterosexual who only comments on matter Athenian from an armchair point of view they should choose Clegg.
Poisonous, why so sparing of your coruscating wit? More posts, please, and don't hold back!

1:41 PM, October 17, 2007
Not sure what point you are making here - the polls had everything to do with him cancelling the election - something that Cameron used to good effect last week. From what I saw he failed to follow up that good performance and didn't inflict any real damage let alone any serious damage this week. Ben Brogan called it as a score draw which I think was generous.
poisonous slippery V Stalinist ruthlessness:
Just what is the point of you existing, as either organic or inorganic matter.
Even my dogs shit can be usefull, (other than throwing at the local Labour candidate)
But I can not think of any particular eason for the likes of you to exist. You make no points of interest or validity.

Re Brown cancelling election having nothing to do with the polls:
" that's last week's news"
That Brown's a liar, a coward and phoney and the public found it out? How you must wish we'd all develop collective amnesia. Don't be so patronising. Brown's bottling of the election and his humiliation by Cameron marked a watershed, the aftermath resonates deeply with people. With one fell swoop Brown blew it. You know it, I know it.
Hello and here is 10 o'clock news.
Here are headlines.
1. Economy still growing
2. We look at problme of draianage in South east catford.
3. Today Cameron got a buggering from the master, must have remined him of his days at eton.
By the way paedoes are not funny. I was talking metaphorically.
Rocker
The point is you've forgotten how to perceive correctly.
Brown was appalling, he made numerous gaffes and blamed the dire state of the NHS on his own lack of investment. His joke about Arnold Schwarzenegger was embarrassing and fell flatter than a pancake. He was incoherent, obnoxious and stuttered and stammered yet you strangely perceive hsi eperformance to have been good. You do see where suspicions regarding your sanity might therefore arise?
Glad I could be of help!
Rocker : "the polls had everything to do with him cancelling the election"
Which he vehemently denied! that's the point.
Don't be so wilfully dense.
Ps He bombed today. Get over it.
Rocker
You didn't watch PMQ's did you? Just admit it.
Last week Brown was afraid of Cameron, and apparently bereft of support from his own benches.
Not this week.
Cameron should take Matthew Parris's advice and just keep repeating liar liar pants on fire.
What a load of crap. Cameron was slippery. Bropwn put forward ideas. His joke about Arnie was spot on Cameron thinks he is the terminator. Cameron has been carved out a new one. Get over it.
Cameron refused to answer any questions oput to him, and skinner ripped jhim apart too, with jhis jibe about cameron bein a encomic advisor on black w. I don't what cocaine you have been takin, if you htink cameron won.
Is 'poisonous' Kevin Maguire in disguise?
Too many similarities to list.
I didn't watch it - just listened to it.
Brown was ghastly - Animal Farm in human form etc etc. But Cameron should not try to engage him as a rational human being. He should keep trying to expose him as a phoney and a liar.
Cameron thinks he is the terminaotor. Obviously last week went to his head. Arnie is a nazi sympthising, meat headed muscle brained, vacuous, man who got charged with sexually harahshement. Wow what a hero to have. Cameron expose brown as a liar Like Cameron di with that TV companj hat went bankrupt tell everyonme their work is safe, then piss off with youir fat fee.
Stammerer Brown reminds me of a stuck record - for ever going on about the NHS funding - not the real worry about deaths in the NHS because of his damned targets. I just wish that all those Treasury civil servants who drempt up this accountants paradise had to go into a NHS hospital when they were sick. Their knighthoods would not save them from the bugs.
Kennedy should stand - he's by far the best on offer.
The BBC website has logged over 11,000 votes, running 75:25 for Charlie Kennedy. People think Charlie was unfairly deprived of his job and will vote in droves to overturn an injustice.
Poisonous/Kevin Maguire -
If Brown's 'joke' about Arnie was 'spot on' why did everyone on all sides go quiet with confused expressions on their faces?
I am not that mirror bloke.
People looked at eachother in confusion as they were thiking "is he serious cameron thinks he is terminator is he insane". Wtf. Who the fuck idelosies the termniator.
get real said:
"That Brown's a liar, a coward and phoney and the public found it out"
Brown says his two biggest priorities are the NHS and education.
Ten years ago Bliar soundbite was "We have 24 hours to save the NHS" Ten years, and untold billions of taxpayers money later we still have a shambolic healthservice ( MRSA, C.Diff., etc, etc)
Ten years ago Bliar soundbite was "education, education, education" Ten years on we still have 49% secondary schools substandard, 5 years olds unable to write their names, etc, etc, etc
In PMQ's today Mc Broon replied to every Cameroon question by referring to the 6 billion "black hole. This year's budget shortfall is something in excess of 30 billion and growing.
How many times during his impersonation of a "prudent", "iron", chancellor did he have to change the dates of the economic cycle so that his overspends stayed within his "golden rule"
How much of his grandiose spending on schools and hospitals have Labour actually paid for, and how much is hidden off balance sheet as PFI "initiatives" ? ( recent estimate 200 billion)
..........not to mention the 5 billion a year pension grab.....
How can anybody believe a word this man says.
http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/uk/kevinmaguire I have decided to link to the blokes webpage. He does criticise Bropwn for giving her "sychphancy". Everyone in westminister knows this is code for making hot sexy sweet love to her.
poisonous/Kevin
PMQs is so much easier to understand as competitive stand-up isn't it?
"I am not that mirror bloke."
No, your spelling is obviously better, although probably not as good as Arnold Schwarznegger's.
Poisonous/Kevin Maguire - what are you on about?
Poisonor / Kevin - admit it- death-fantasies like yours come from frustrated desire
I gather Millibland has thrown a tantrum because somebody has pointed out to him that his actions are just like Chamberlain's in his dealings with the Nazis in 1938. Ahh, what a shame. Can the idiot not see what he is doing then?
Too much to hope that "I'm offended" no longer a sure way of deflecting attention
Posionous-
Look at the times link to this story
"Half of all British secondary schools are failing to provide a good education, according to Ofsted's annual report"
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/education/article2677065.ece
Looking at your spelling you seem to be a case in point.
Tell me how many billions has Brown thrown at the education system (can you count?) to give us a schools that will teach your child about buggery, but seems unable to teach them to read.
How many billions has it cost to have hospital patients told to piss and shit in the beds they lay?
At least under the Tories we had a shit NHS, but it cost us next to nothing.
If thats the best you can do give me my money back and I'll buy my own education and health.
W.W.
1. Economy still growing
You are mistaken, Poisonous, it is not.
Any statistical evidence to the effect that it is still growing but at a slower rate is a illusion, but the underlying trend is that the 'stop' button got banged on about four weeks ago.
I can tell this from extraordinarily silly markers, but they show the way the river of money is flowing, or more accurately, the way it is beginning to stagnate.
When I watch what people are spending in the supermarket, the baskets are smaller, feature the value/offer items and - above all - they are paying cash on a day-to-day basis.
This means their credit cards are maxed out and they are using what money they have left to protect their remaining credit lines. They might not be able to use the cards, but they don't want to lose them.
The other marker is shoes. I don't see people (OK women) buying shoes any more than is strictly necessary.
That is not just a function of wardrobes being full to bursting; they are calculating they have enough footwear to get by on and are switching the money in to other security purchases.
So if they do buy anything at Christmas, I would guess warm coats and gold are going to be in demand from Nov 6. (That's the unofficial Nearly Christmas day).
The natural lull in the housing market towards Christmas might just mean that the house-price bubble is disguised for a few months, but Labour had better start thanking its stars for global warming (if it exists) and hoping we don't get hurricanes or floods. Bad weather combined with a credit crunch kills governments.
Cameron has nothing to gain from an election just at the moment. There is bad stuff just ahead and it is much more sensible to let Brown carry the can for his own bad management, then go to the country when he really will be judged on his record.
We know what school Cameron (note spelling Mr Poisonous) went to - do tell us if, where and when you went to school you cretinous oaf. You might be mildly diverting in the sort of way of watching a chimpanzee's teaparty if you could type one word in ten that was deciperable.
I take it your fellow-travellers in the Gay Snot-eating Dear Leader's Appreciation Society have got fed up with your pig ignorance and banned you from their blogs. Understandable - you are the perfect poster cunt for the propagation of Conservatism. We thank you, but for fuck's sake have a word with Stanislav and learn English you moron.

Sorry to spoil your day Guido but Julia Goldsworthy has told the Western Morning News that she has absolutely no intention of throwing her hat into the ring!
But she may throw her ring into the hat!
And another thing about that revolting old layabout parasite Campbell. For weeks he's been telling anyone who would listen that he was "up for it"; that at 66 he was "working" eighteen hour days, full of vim and vigour. Look at me, collar undone, running up and down my stairs; see Eslpeth beside me, she looks satisfied, eh? Nauseating,scrawny old fucking creep. What the rancid old cunt conveniently ignores is that millions of other sixty six year olds have spent a life doing proper work to keep him and his co-cunts living in subsidised luxury in Westminster, to allow him haute cuisine and fine wines at their expense, to pay for his three months holiday and his first class travel everywhere, and his foreign junkets and his fucking armour-plated fucking pension, the fucking impudent pussyhwipped, sorry-assed fucking cocksucking, over-dressed fucking pansy fucking thieving pompous fucking two-faced, fucking sanctimonious fucking shit-eating Scottish fucking parasite bastard. And they gave him all this while he was still plying his trade among all the other Scottish lawyer-extortionists, no bigger bunch of shameless, thieving bastards outside of Barlinnie.
Proper people have spent years digging holes in the road, laying bricks in all weathers, lifting and laying the sick and the dying, mining coal, farming and fishing and at sixty six, they have ailments wrought by hard work and poor diet and indifferent fucking cunt doctors. To see this fucking jackanapes scurrying from studio to studio trumpeting his manliness and strength must make them want to puke. What this fucking ghastly old fraud needs is a not a five star Sagaworld retirement spent whingeing about how unfair it all was but a quick rub-down with a housebrick and dropping down the nearest mineshaft. Up against the wall, McMotherfucker.
As for that other Scotch cunt and seagoing abortionist pansy Steel, the vile little bombastic reprobate with the pimp shirts and the greased-down hair was on Scottish Newswank last night pissed out of what he's pleased to call his fucking mind and moaning about how when he and the cunt Ming came into politics nobody had the temerity to be rude to them, how things had deteriorated. Obnoxious, would-be patrician little wanker.
By way of balance, a drunk from the Independent a Mr (and Stanislav not invent this)McSmith read out extracts from GuidoWorld postings of a couple of weeks ago and, struggling, pretended, that these were his own observations. Useless cunt.
"Stanislav": your "Polish" accent is slipping a bit, dear boy. I'm inclined to think Stanislav is either the Hitch or a Guido alter ego.
Nonsense, his Polish is just becoming polished!
He is a useless cunt that Minger, but all lib-dumbs are to put it kindly, which fortunately that Polish instution of Scotland, our very own Stanislav doesn't.
Methinks I must explore the possiblity of forming a new Party, the Stay Gutterers.
Got any pics of Goldsworthy's tits then Guido??
Mr Anonymous
Fuck off English cunt. Stanislav is real person. Not Guido. Not Hitch. Everybody know Stanislav. Fix-up toilet cheap and help economy. In spare time rant and rave like fucking nutter. Is ancient venerable Polish tradition. Same as getting fucked up arse by Germans. Can't help if english improve, is why come in UK, learn English, be doctor, like Stanislav heroes, Gerry and Cilla McCann, not work, Just go in and out of church for tv cameras; just live off public. Is great. Better than politician scam. Only pension not so good and wonky scouse wife go barking. Woof-woof, woof-woof. I is brilliant mother, woof-woof, woof-woof.
STANISLAV Are you really Matt Allwright from the critically acclaimed 'Rogue Traders'on bbc1(soon to be on channel sky2..probably) doing his impression of the eastern european worker? you fraud mongering scamp..
Oi, cunt. Pis of!!
Gary
No is Polish plumber live in Scotland, best part of England and have some time when not down toilet make effort learn about politics in new country. Also has MRSA from shithole hospital run by Mrs Alana Belsen-Johnstone, minister for extermination and is all fucked-up with bug drugs. Can't therefore be BBC entertainer. All those cunts go private. In Bupa, innit?
Stanislav, don't work, go down to the dole office and claim some shillings.
Do you know how to vote?
Do you know of Labour? have you heard of New Labour?
Do you want your children over here? Are they old enough to vote?
Can they wield a spanner?
New Labour likes Polich people and likes them more if they vote Labour.
Do you know that Neville Chamberlain (A Conservative) liked Hitler?
Were any of your family murdered by Chamberlain's (A conservative) friend, Adolph Hitler?
Was a death camp put in Poland by Chamberlain's (A Conservative) friend Adolph Hitler, a polish hater?
New Labour likes polish people. Labour sent many young men to free Europe.
