Gordon Brown to face massive rebellion over EU treaty

Apparently, according to today's Telegraph, which is not as yet available online, Gordon Brown may have up to 120 MP's rebelling against the EU constitution/treaty unless there is a referendum.

When the report comes online I will link to it.

Interesting. Gordon Brown has already had more rebellions in his first month as PM than all others put together since the war, and he has only had one month or parliament sitting.

Could make politics interesting, though I suspect that Gordon will twist the odd arm or two.

Rebellions? You nar-nar. This would be the first of any significance ... if it happened ...

Chris Paul, he has had 8 so far, as in where a Labour MP has gone against the whip. Yes they have not been significant, but a 120MP one would be. Obviously I doubt it would ever get that big.

What, Gordon? I doubt it.
