• Mick Fealty on why the anti-Laws campaign was ill conceived and anti-democratic. Amen.
• Tom Harris thinks Gordon Brown should take his share of the blame for the formation of the coalition and specuates about what could have happened if he had resigned 4 days earlier.
• Hopi Sen cautions against the idea that Labour will automatically return to power after the next election. The historical precedents suggest otherwise.
