    Hopefully he will go down in history as being the shortest lived PM in UK history.
    Not going to happen, wikipedia (after much explanation as to how they arrived at this) gives

    <
    Consequently the Prime Minister with the total shortest period in office was George Canning, whose sole term lasted 119 days from 10 April 1827 until his death on 8 August 1827

As soon as anybody points out something his stock response is to say how much better things are now than when they took over a decade ago. As was pointed out before, I don't care what has gone on in the past. If my house gets repossessed tomorrow it is going to be little comfort that more people were getting dumped out of their houses 15 years ago. While he could hide when the brown stuff hit the fan while he was the Number 2 it is not possible now he is the PM. Hopefully he will go down in history as being the shortest lived PM in UK history.
    Aaargghh! Wall of text!

    I watched Fahrenheit 911 last night... GWB's smile is equally insincere, while also managing to convey a contemptuous smirky look too.

    He looks like someone operating a ventriloquist dummy, though at the same time he also looks like the dummy.
    At least this is one of the things that TB taught him correctly.
