This week will be rather interesting. We have local elections (labour expected to get a kicking), European elections (potentially all the main parties to get a kicking) and a confirmed reshuffle which will see a new home secretary (as Jacqui Smith is stepping down), probably a new communities secretary, possibly a new chancellor and maybe other changes as well.
The possibility of a new chancellor is the most interesting. Since Brown still gives the strong impression of wanting to run the economy from number 10 any replacement would have to be a loyal Brownite and the Tories would immediately construe it as an admission that this chancellor wasn't up to the job.
We'll just have to see.
