There is a new addition to the petitions on Downing Street, one calling for Gordon Brown to resign. The deadline for signing up is not until October so plenty of time, Number 10 must respond to all those that are 'serious' receive 200 signatories, well it already has over 8,000. So I wonder what the response will be? An argument for why he is doing a good job (perhaps in similar tone to the response to the Clarkson for PM petition). Or will the party see, if support for this really spirals, this as a call to action. It will be interesting if the media pick this up!Musings on political communication, how it works, or doesn't, what it is and should be and reflections on what our leaders are saying and, importantly, how they say it!
