Write a Book about Courage, Act Like a Coward

New Labour has just confirmed that it will not be contesting the Haltemprice and Howden by-election. It is an act of cowardice.

I can understand the Lib Dems - they have opposed 42 days.

But Gordon Brown had to have to bully and cajole (and possibly bribe) MPs to get a bill through Parliament and then not put up a candidate for a by-election called because of that single issue is an act of cowardice - it shows that they are scared of the debate - that can be the only reason.
