Brilliant. Fair play to him - impressive cojones to stand up and say it!

Apparently this YouTube has now become Viral, whatever that means.
I like to think it means Gordon Brown has been ridiculed to such a degree but somehow I suspect he will still come out smelling of roses by this ultimate south paw upper cut to his flabby jowls and have Daniel Hannan arrested for farting while in control of a vehicle.

I noticed that snigger too, frankly it's either disgraceful or incredibly cretinous, I can't put a good spin on his reaction (assuming it's not a crafty edit as you pointed out).Originally posted by eliquant View PostWhat really gets me mad about this is that the reaction shot of Gordon Brown showing his sniggering contempt towards Dan Hannah.
If that sniggering contempt was not shown out of context i.e. via crafty video editing by the media company then it just shows that I think we have a major problem with a Prime Minister who is partly in denial or maybe it shows that he himself knows he has been 'found out'. Either way Gordon Brown is a big problem and he has got to be ousted.
There are some superb phrases in the speech that rather neatly sum things up.
I'm not naturally much to the right of centre politically, but it's indeed time that this shambles of a Government are done away with. My only fear is that I simply don't trust any British politician to do any better.

I posted this in the other related thread but I think I make some sort of point, at first I thought Gordon Brown was just boring and incapable of intelligent control on spending and regulation but now I see maybe some bad psychology in there also ..

Hard to argue with this and I finally believe that a politician isn't completely full of brown smelly stuff.
