Oh, dear ... things go from bad to worse for the Silliband !
Jeremy Clarkson has "hinted" that he may stand as an Independent at Doncaster North (where he is from originally) - Silliband's own seat !
Silliband only has a 10,000 majority ... so who knows?

Silliband's poll rating SLUMPS AGAIN !
Ed Miliband was rocked on the eve of the crucial party conference season today by an exclusive poll showing Labour’s lead crashing to just three points.
Ipsos MORI’s dramatic research reveals Labour has slipped three points from 40 per cent to 37 per cent since August, while David Cameron’s Conservatives are up four to 34 per cent.
For the first time since he became leader, over half of Labour supporters (52 per cent) are dissatisfied with the way he is doing his job, compared with 40 per cent who are satisfied.
The split compares badly with the Prime Minister’s solid rating among Conservative supporters of 71 per cent satisfied to 23 per cent dissatisfied.
It the worst rating for any Opposition leader by their own supporters since autumn 2003 when Iain Duncan Smith was ousted by the Tories as their leader.
