As they say, a week is a long time in politics. Gordon Brown looked unassailable when the Labour Party Conference closed a few weeks ago. With David Cameron behind in the polls and Labour united behind him, Brown talked up a snap election to destabilise the upcoming Tory party conference. It looked like a classic Tory wind up.

However, a couple of weeks later and the Conservatives are ahead in the polls, election fever is a distant memory and Brown has had the worst week of his political career.

Some are even suggesting the Brown bounce has been replaced by a Cameron bounce.
