    It depends what you class as "gone quiet" really. I've already posted twice this morning on the "Rochdale" thread. Completely pointless joke posts, yes, but posts all the same. And I posted several times yesterday afternoon on other threads about it.

    What's to say? The whole thing was very awkward, and Sky hit the jackpot they were so desperate for (and very likely set-up by giving him the mic and not asking for it back).

    Brown still comes across as massively more genuine than Cameron, which shows just how astonishingly awful Cameron is. Clegg is still doing well. It's going to be an interesting week ahead.
    Surely this is all a matter of perspective. I personally think that Cameron doesn't come across as awful and brown does. The difference being that I'm a tory supporter and your the labour equivalent. Tarker's on the other hand is a labour fanboy which automatically turns me against him.

    At the end of the day, Sky probably saw an oppotunity to find out what Gordon really thinks about constituents. If he'd said nothing but positive remarks about her, i'm sure the media would have been singing his praises. He didn't, hence the various heated discussion. He made a mistake, and it will count against him with the voters. Nothing more to say about the matter really.

      Why? Because the average working class voter is a chunt.
      Far better when the country was ruled with firmness and vision by a handful of first rate upper class people, like myself.

      Since you have already admitted to a parent who had a failed business- hence your curtailed edjumacation, the best you could hope for with your limited intellect is to describe your background as 'merchant class' i.e low to middling.

        At least Brown apologised in person. Could you ever imagine Thatcher apologising for anything?
        Truly amazing how this stooge manages to pathetically deflect what is the most revealing episode so far of any of the major political parties, by comparing it with someone from an entirely different era.

        Your mentality of blind partisan support (as in mindless football supporter) is exactly what is wrong with the way the political system works in this country.

                    While my public school career may have been curtailed for lack of fees, by dint of my superior intellect I got myslf into one of the best universities to read engineering and followed it up later with an MBA .

                      The labour stooges have gone quiet today. I suspect they have embarked on a train journey to reassure themselves that the country is in tip top condition thanks to 13 years of labour. Or are they wandering around the town and city centres witnessing the hordes of affluent shoppers queuing to buy luxury goods from pound shops up and down the country?

                      The Rochdale woman typified the honest labour supporter with who these middle class champagne socialists wish to identify themselves. Underneath it however just like Gordon Brown, they despise their fellow working class supporters. Rochdale woman to them is nothing more than a person to patronise. After all what they want is to hijack the moral integrity of honest people like her in order to give virtue to themselves.

                      Gordon Browns outburst showed the world the real character of your average champagne socialist.
