    Presumably so he can start taxing our broadband connections ?

    He was giving a speech this morning about giving high speed internet access to all, or something like that.

    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.

    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".

    Divine intervention is unlikely. A labour victory however, that's just heaven...

    I don't vote so I can't speak, but my goodness I could not distinguish the difference between an MP lobbying for a far away land after a paid holiday to the Maldives and a dole collecting job dodging ned.

    Completely out for themselves.

    The election is getting closer. Labour are keeping him out of the way.
