From the BBC website:
The Prime Minister spoke for just under an hour, ending with an attempt to boost the morale of party members shaken by polls suggesting they are heading for a massive defeat, telling them New Labour was "not done yet".
He urged activists to "dream big dreams and watch our country soar" and "reach inside ourselves for the strength of our convictions" and to "fight" for victory - earning a standing ovation in the hall.
Honestly, who is Brown trying to fool? Himself? His loyal followers (both of them I mean)? The British public?? I know that a week is a long time in politics (so they say) but Labour are dead and buried. There is no way that they are going to win the General Elections next year. The only way for Gordon Brown to avoid a crushing defeat at the polls next year is to step down as PM and hand over the poisoned chalice to someone else. After all Tony Blair played this trick on him when Labour had started to lose support so Brown may as well do the same.
