Quote: Melch "Interesting stuff. Of course, we were led to believe that Blair would do the full term at the last election. I don't think that Brown will get the mandate that Major did.'"
I don't think any leader has gone into an election saying they wouldn't serve a full term (vote for me but I might resign in a couple of years).
Everyone will have a different opinion about how Brown has done the job and he is certainly less popular than Major was before the 1992 election. The point I'm making is judge PMs on their performance, not whether they assumed office at the beginning or middle of a Parliament.
