What's in a number - Why 42 ?



Personally I think it is because Gordon Brown loves the 1980's legends Level 42.
I'm not sure what his favourite single is. I suspect it's their 1983 hit "The Chinese Way". After all, the Chinese like to keep people locked up without trial too. Although, I suspect give the latest poll ratings Gordon's favourite single will be the 1987 single "It's Over".

Regardless of the result, he's still in "Hot Water"

42 is the number of knives being sharpened.

Maybe it's because he will only have 42 days left after losing the vote before he resigns or gets booted out?

What's in a number? Quite a lot actually. According to Iain Dale, £3,000 per day for 42 days equals £42,000. According to John Hirst, who is almost totally innumerate, £3,000 per day for 42 days equals £126,000.

Send him to the back of the class!

Votes counted. The DUP bailed them out. Our money used to buy this amendment. Surely buying votes is a criminal offence?
