Hattie and Gord

I just wonder, with Harriet Harman's statement that she would not contend the leadership, whether there is one thing that has gone unmentioned. If Brown were to resign she, as deputy leader, might try to persuade the palace that she should be permitted to carry on (don't forget that she, unlike Brown, has been elected by her colleagues). She might then try to fight the election as the incumbent.

Does she know something we don't?
