Will she pip her hubbie for shadow chancellor?

With the results of Labour shadow cabinet elections due out this evening Ed Miliband is said to be phoning key figures to tell them what role they have.

The big focus is, of course, on the Balls household – is the shadow chancellor going to be Mister or Missus?

The rumours suggest the latter and that’s where the lively Smarkets exchange market is now moving.

I’ve been betting against Ed Balls. I might be wrong but somehow I don’t see EdB be given such a powerful role. Ed Miliband more than anybody knows a lots about shadow chancellor/party leader relationships.

It could be that something slips out tonight but who knows?
