Balls Up?

They used to say that a week is a long time in Politics. I think that needs a reassessment.

I reckon it's now '4 days is an eternity in Politics'.

At this time 4 days ago (Thursday night) people were speculating that Ed Balls would lose his parliamentary seat and be out of national politics.

4 days later people are speculating that he could be Labour's second unelected PM.

I want to emigrate. Now.
