He's probably busy trying to get his Mrs pregnant. Ideally with triplets. That'd show the country that he's more of a man than "Dave".Comment

He was giving a speech this morning about giving high speed internet access to all, or something like that.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostNot that I'm missing him or anything but he's been remarkable absent from the house of commons in the past couple of days...

WARNING - The video clip on the page of Gordon Brown speaking plays automatically so you need to jump in quick if you don't want to hear it.
The speech took place somewhere in London, but I can't see anybody reporting where, or to whom, this speech was made.
EDIT: OK, if you can bear to listen to him then he starts his speech mentioning that he is at "the Hub", whatever that is.Last edited by Gonzo; 22 March 2010, 23:09.Comment
