Gordon Brown to stand down – Lib Dems formally open talks with Labour on progressive coalition
May 10
Gordon Brown makes a statement about standing down as Labour leader and Prime Minister, and formally opening talks with the Liberal Democrats.
He remains “caretaker” Prime Minister for now, and will stay until the Labour Party re-elect a leader in September.

There must never again be an election under this broken system.”
