It’s make or break for make or break

It’s been a tough week for make or break, as it’s come under relentless pressure to describe today’s Commons statement by Ruth Kelly:

The Times:

In a make-or-break statement, Ms Kelly will reveal the results of an “exhaustive� review of cases [...]

The Telegraph:

As Miss Kelly prepared for her make or break day, Tony Blair’s official spokesman said [...]

The Guardian:

Another sex offender working in schools has been revealed as Ruth Kelly, the education secretary, prepares for her make-or-break Commons statement [...]

The Daily Mail:

Ms Kelly is due to make a statement to MPs on the sex offenders’ scandal in what could be a “make or break” moment [...]

The Independent:

She delivers what is being billed as her “make or break” statement on the controversy [...]

The BBC:

Some believe Thursday’s statement is “make or break” for Ms Kelly, who is also facing criticism [...]

Can the phrase survive the onslaught? Only time will tell. But a week is a long time in politics, and really it’s a game of two halves.
