Brash concedes
Heh back on the 20th I blogged in my “What I would do if I was …” post that Don should “concede the election within an hour or so of the final count”.
Don conceded around an hour after the 11 am results đ
Now we just need Don to confirm that he will stay on for the next election. There is absolutely no mood for change (well not from Earls Court, London anyway đ and while I think it is silly to predict the Government will collapse after a year etc, it is going to have a very difficult job passing laws, and is already stained by corruption allegations.
The challenge for National is not just to win the next election, but to demolish Labour so that they take several terms to recover.
UPDATE: Don has confirmed he is staying on. Excellent.
