Brown Going, CCHQ Recriminations Starting

Mid-level staffers at CCHQ will find out shortly if their contracts are being renewed with the prospect of a second election ahead. They are currently playing the blame game or as one told Guido "Who was shitter Hilton or Coulson?"

Hilton's hissy fits are legend - he has even been nicked for calling a copper a "w****r" - he disappeared for a while after the 'Big Society' was derided as unsellable in the same way that social responsibility was unsellable on the doorsteps. Treating underlings badly is a dangerous habit, he can expect a less than glowing press when the history of the campaign is written up. His great enemy, Andy Coulson, is blamed by some for being a booster for the TV debates, which the Tory sponsor Lord Ashcroft blames for the LibDems being put into contention - though given they lost seats, did it really put them into contention?

Give it a weekend or so and the Sunday newspapers will be doing their inside stories...
