Petition for Gordon Brown to resign

Rather cheekily, there is now a petition on the Number 10 website urging the Prime Minister to resign.

There are already 706 signatures. I wonder how many they will get before it closes on 22nd October this year, or Number 10 shuts it down.

UPDATE: Guido and Dale have now posted on this. I think this could get very big, very quickly. It's already up to 1,789 in the space of a couple of hours. It only needs 28,000 to become the top petition.
