Gordon has gone
#91
He was a grossly incompetent Chancellor and an ineffective PM. He skirted around the truth, especially when he presented his budgets. I still think he was at least sincere about his policies which were utterly useless as far as this country was concerned.
The manner of his departure was correctly done and was dignified with no unpleasantness and he cannot be blamed for all that.

If Aus is anything to go by, he'll get a guilt edged pension fund he can access NOW, free travel for life, anywhere, anytime. Preferential treatment in hospitals etc etc etc...

And that is where you are wrong. Because, it's not these "public figures" you need to "worry" about. It's the "hidden masses" and "ruling classes" behind them that actually have the power. Ever wonder why "security" is so tight around that part of London? It's to keep us out!

What we need is a "French" revoloution, seriously. The main problem is that most people are "comfortable", even though our civil rights are being eroded faster than our taxes and Himilayan glaciers are melting (2035 apparetly - what a hoot).

Pontificating
Surely you have to let him prove he's a bigger **** before labelling him as such, at least Brown and Blair proved they were before being labelled....
On the brightside we wont have a sweaty telling us what to do after 13 years of Scottish rule

It would seem that I was wrong - we now do know that Brown had taken a call from Clegg confirming the deal allowing Brown to resign.
There is a clear sequence and there there was no obvious petulance, there are photographs of Brown taking the call and the most obvious emotion seems to be one of relief.

If he'd shown the same levels of humility and dare I say it charisma over the last 13 years, the result might have been different!
I thought the way he left with his kids and his wife was very dignified and he looked like a huge weight had been taken off his back.

PS Anyone else have a secret crush on Sarah Brown?

You appear to be contradicting yourself

The negotiating chips have been moved around the table somewhat by this move.
