PREDICTIONS REALISED: Three, IN PLAY: Two
First: Hilary Benn is on 42 with 30 or so in play. He needs three more. 10%. Don't break his heart PLP people. Let's have him on that ballot.
Second: Just enough nominations for Gordon Brown to make it a no-contest. Hard to avoid when there is such a very strong consensus that it's gotta be Gordon.
Third: Some slowtrack MPs did indeed manage to keep their powder dry. But Jon and Jon - the Compass Two - did jump 'how high' for Gordon. They may come to regret that.
Fourth: Gordon did indeed have a big conversation with the party in Manchester. And he was very good.
Fifth: Early visit to Palace. Probably unlikely ... barring an emergency.

I've started the debate on my blog.
A creative spoil?
