Hero of The Western World

[BrilloPad]

Gordon Brown may be trailing in the polls at home, but in the US last night he was hailed as a hero for "stabilising" the world economy and showing "compassionate leadership".

Why oh why doesn't the UK breed the sort of psychopathic marksmen we need in such a crisis, like America does?

Is there grassy knoll anywhere near Parliament Square?

It only has to be near Parliament Square in the sense that Dallas is near to the White House.

Vindication that he did save the world as he declared in Parliament?

What a soppy attitude - He tries his best for:

1. Gordon Brown
2. Labour Party
