Ah, but apparently it is the time for a useless cocktard. Glad that's clear then.

A novice at what though. You could be a great PM but be a novice remote viewer.

This is no time for a novice....


Millipede the Milk Monitor's overt speech for the leadership was about tepid as you could make it as he was trying too hard not to show some enthusiasm.

Compare with Gordon, he got his wife to ask the audience nicely not to boo Gordon or be beastly to him. Gordo rallied through why he wants the job, what he is (a ) and then throws some crumbs from the Ladybird book of Socialism (1945, first edition) to keep the unions happy and is arse lubricated.

No, no time for a novice.

Just a pack of over promoted crypto-intellectuals who have never held a real job in their lives telling us what their focus groups think. Saying how they are listening (but ignoring the public consultatations) and getting on with the job of fking up the prospects of everyone in the country because they have the temerity to use their democratic right to vote you out of power.

So Brown is the experienced one. The one who ran the country's finances and wasted 10 years of a cheap credit era, a consumer-led boom, by spending and borrowing, creating excess public sector jobs to hide unemployment, ransacking the pensions systems and so on. Yes, that sort of experience. Very useful...

Caught some caption on the BBC coverage yesterday saying "Brown trusts britain".

Would have been great to hack into the BBC and change to read "but does Britain trust Brown?"

There is no way GB can claim that he's done a fantastic job as PM. I'm not sure Cameron would be a lot better, but he'd have to go some way to do a worse job.

Frankly, Cameron, and almost anyone else, couldn't fail to be better than the current retard. Not even post frontal lobotomy, locked in a cave, mainlining acid, wearing underpants on head, pencils up nose uttering 'wibble' and nothing else, could he, you or I, be any worse than Brown.

This is a fact.

exactly. The Tory election posters could just say "Cameron is not Brown, so vote for us and get rid of the tt."

Watched Brown being interviewed on some TV show this morning... to give her her due the interviewer asked him at least 3 times about fuel prices and the government taking so much in duty (amongst other things) and all he kept banging on about was the world price of oil and chucked in Road Tax as some sort of red herring.... I REALLY REALLY wish some journalist would stand up and show some balls and say " With the greatest respect Mr Brown stop treating the public like idiots, either answer the question or do the decent thing and resign" when faced with such pathetic wriggling, it really was embarrassing!! furious

I very much doubt there is no vice in Gordon Brown's bag of political magic tricks.

Hi there LA, I asked in another thread about your daughter-in-education, working in southern Thailand, and that when I hear stories of the terrorism acts there I think of her and you and hope she's OK. Is she still out risking her life to give young Thais a break?

When did they last let Paxman interview anyone of any "standing" in Nu-Labour?

Someone please explain to me how Gordon Brown made the speach of his life yesterday. It was vague and full of generalizations. There were no specifics what so ever.
