Well, The big, bold headline in today's Daily Mail suggests the prime minister is poised to "indicate his intention to hold an early election by spelling out Labour's main election pledges" tomorrow.
The thinking behind that idea is that since one of Brown's pledges will be about ensuring economic recovery, he has a motive to want to call an early election because of fears of a double-dip recession amid a "wave of dire economic news".
On 23 April, the Office for National Statistics will release growth figures for the first quarter of 2010 that few expect will look rosy. Surely he wouldn’t go the day before...but it is Gordon we are talking about!
