The 65th anniversary of the normandy landing isn't till tomorrow. But right now I'd imagine that Brown and the Labour party feel a bit like the soldiers on the eve of the battle. The German ones.
Last night the polls closed at 10pm. At 10:01 James Purnell, the minister for work and pensions resigned. His resignation letter was a statement of no confidence in Gordon Brown.
This morning Brown is declaring his reshuffle. Early. And thus far without the major head rolling that was expected. A sign of weakness? The rest of the day will tell.
Also the local elections are not looking good. Labour has lost Bristol and the tories and Lib Dems have both made gains.
More as the day goes on.
