The Blair / Brown dynamic was odd and Teflon Tony certainly knew when to jump ship - however I am appalled that after a long period power and a good spell as leader Gordon Brown can acquit himself so woefully during the election build up. The while thing sort of leaves a nasty taste in the mouth...thanks for the lovely photos xMarch 17thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05687255247816681142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-14889823722017510042010-04-28T10:43:28.620+01:002010-04-28T10:43:28.620+01:00I suspect you aren't the only with strange att...I suspect you aren't the only with strange attractions to idealists- I once had a very strange thing for Tony Benn, it only lasted a week or two, though I am still a great admirer- but in a different way! (and not of everything) <br /><br />I couldn't agree more about Brown being eaten away- part of me feels quite sad for him but he is a bright man and honestly it was obvious this was a poisoned chalice- whatever you think of Blair (and I don't think much) he knows how to survive and he knew it was time to go- even though I am sure he would have stayed forever if he thought he'd get away with it. <br /><br />Brown reminds me of Prince John in the Disney Robin Hood I'm afraid- riddled with jealousy and hatred for Blair and sobbing and then having fits of rage about it all. <br /><br />As for the rest- anyone who could have encouraged this kind of non prudent lending and who is now encouraging the bankers to make even bigger profits than ever off the back of their mistakes is not a socialist I am afraid.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459305021803770946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-79090075549231047582010-04-28T05:24:30.876+01:002010-04-28T05:24:30.876+01:00Although I'm many miles away I am watching you...Although I'm many miles away I am watching your political threesome with much interest.

She must have be listening to the same radio show you were.

If he can't believe in the people of Britain, how can he expect them to believe in him? It makes me sad too.Sharon Longworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18120227975152565893noreply@blogger.com
