2008: The Brown rollercoaster 8:24pm on 20 Dec 2008 Nick Clegg = Neil Kinnock!
2008: The Brown rollercoaster 8:15pm on 19 Dec 2008 we have nothing to fear but Gordon Brown himself.

This man is useless, I have nothing but utter contempt for "It". Brown is not a man but a child in an adults body - Who else could cynically write to an X factor winner but not the people who have lost family fighting wars that he has signed up to?

Brown will do anything to score party political points, even lets remeber Baby P. He is a monster - How can the BBC report some of the garbage in glowing terms about the PM who has set Britain back.

Brown is a deliver nothing leader and the labour party is a deliver nothing party.

The only thing Brown has given the British people is recession, debt and dispair.
2008: The Brown rollercoaster 7:49pm on 19 Dec 2008 I have lost my Job already and a victim of Gordon Brown's dreadful economic record.

He has done nothing to help those people who have lost their jobs already and in the next few months others will discover that LABOUR IS THE DELIVER NOTHING PARTY.

They have had 11 years in power and have failed on everything and now ruined the economy.

The UK is not a victim of the world slow done but Gordon Brown's policies.

The only thing manufactured in this country in recent years is Gordon Brown's recession for which I have paid the price. The recovery only starts when Gordon Brown loses his job!

Some interesting Gordon Brown quotes on the currency in Hansard about currency when he was shadow chancellour: § Mr. Brown The difference between the parties has become clear during the debate. The Chancellor cannot even tell us—nor could the Prime Minister—whether they support floating or managed exchange rates. Our policy is for managed exchange rates. What are the policies of the Government? What has happened to zero inflation? What has happened to the boast that Britain was a miracle country, envied by Germany? What has happened to the boast that we would get inflation in Britain below German levels and keep it there? What has happened to the boast mentioned by my right hon. and learned Friend the Member for Monklands, East (Mr. Smith) this afternoon —that we would have a currency superior to that of Germany?http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/commons/1992/sep/24/economic-policy#S6CV0212P0-00590
A bit further down: All those monetary targets—the right hon. Gentleman is nodding his head. If he is targeting the exchange rate as a means of deciding interest rates, how does he assess it? Is he now shadowing the deutschmark again? How? If he says that he has an exchange rate target, he must explain what he is doing. That is another question that he will have to answer if the House is to be satisfied. Further down again: Our case is still that the weak currency which arises from a weak economy can be dealt with only by measures taken here in Britain to deal with the fundamental weakness of that economy. Fourthly, the Government have devalued the currency —something they said they would never do—and, even afterwards, interest rates are 9 per cent. It is a humiliation 95 made likely by the weakness of the currency which is itself the product of the weakness of the economy and that is the product of the weakness of this Government.http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/commons/1992/sep/24/economic-policy#S6CV0212P0-00590
Irresponsible or prudent? 11:31pm on 15 Nov 2008 Who said this in 1992 as Shadow C of E?

Stop putting Gordon's lies out!
Stimulating the global economy 2:30pm on 15 Nov 2008 Why I think Gordon Brown is going to the country in the spring of 2009:

I have noticed a few political and non political movements and can say I think it highly likely that Gordon Brown is going to Cut and Run and call an early General Election. Brown has avoided outright media speculation but the point has now come where Gordon Brown will have to face questions and either call an election or rule one out for the spring of 2009.

Brown is obviously clearing the decks by the considerable legislative U-turns of late and shelving into the long grass like post office closure. The cynical Brown/Mandelson reasoning is to leave the hard choices and unpopularity for the next post GE Government.

Brown has scrapped the 50 Labour party achievements list since 1997 and has even removed the 2005 Labour Manifesto from the Labour party website. Maybe the references to ‘No more Boom and Bust’ were just too much for Brown. Other interesting Labour party movements are advertising for election personnel on fixed term contracts and the Labour party now calling itself *Britain’s Democratic Socialist party lead by Gordon Brown*.

The coming Pre-Budget report is also likely to increase tax credits in a cynical pre-election bribe to enable Gordon Brown to make party politics about a Tory Government taking them away. Gordon Brown seems to go out of his way to make party political points out of the hardship he has created. Gordon Brown is a ruthless party political politician – He knows no shame when it comes to taking political credit.

Brown knows that unemployment is a lagging economic indicator and that to leave a general election any longer, means the dole queues will be huge and this is the only thing Brown does not want the credit for! The 10p Tax deception and its political fix also expire at the end of fiscal year 2008-2009. Be in no doubt that Brown will calculate that he can pull Darling’s strings to extend this and call an election as late as June, then if he won have a mini budget and remove these measures.

The Cynical Gordon Brown will also have calculated that Britain takes up the chairmanship of the G20 in the first quarter of 2009. Brown thinks that this will be a strong card for him - international statesman and all that. However, there could well be a problem in that it makes Brown look domestically remote, more interested in taking the credit internationally for something than dealing with the hard decisions back home as he has deferred these post General Election.

The last reason I think Brown is going to call an early 2009 general election is potentially the most cynical of all but equally damning to the most repugnant British politician in the post war period. Brown will calculate that a major terrorist atrocity could well hit the United States, Britain or an ally in the transitional period or early part of Obama’s term. Brown will hope to get a bounce like Blair did after 9/11, so that he can use the Credit in an election campaign
Stimulating the global economy 8:39pm on 14 Nov 2008 Does Brown give you lines to take/ Give Brown Credit check list?

When will the Worm (You) turn and say what you really think about the dire straights Brown has left this country get into?

What is it like being sent to interview and report on a monster who will use the death of a child for political point scoring?

Surely you must be getting to the end of the road in reporting Brown's agenda.

I think Nick, You must be as sick of Brown as the rest of the population. How such a monster could have got into No.10 is beyond me.

Why?

For those who say he is well intentioned - I say Hitler was well intentioned but look what he did to his country.

I am reminded today why Tony Blair was so good as a brief clip showed Tony Blair doing something for Children in need. Obviously Gordon Brown will not do anything unless he thinks he can get some credit from it.
Stimulating the global economy 6:06pm on 14 Nov 2008 Is there no limit to this ludicrous Gordon Brown for what he will do or say?

Gordon Brown know thinks it prudent to slag off the man (Bush) who has the clout to push through any changes in the financial system.

People have said that Brown is a strategic genuis - personally i think he is someone who wants to get credit from other peoples misery and make party political points out of murdered babies.

Gordon Brown is a monster, he is also complete unfit for office. The party political point scoring freak needs removing from office before he does any further damage to this country.
Not everyone's a fan 1:03pm on 14 Nov 2008 Gordon Brown has dreadful judgement.

Brown who boasts of No more Boom and Bust for short term political capital should not be trusted on international Financial issues.

Brown has no global credibility - would they really take advice from a country where the Leader (Brown) has the worse performing economy in recession in the G7 if not the G20.

Gordon Brown needs removing from No.10 he is not fit to be PM.
Not everyone's a fan 12:54pm on 14 Nov 2008 Gordon Brown is the problem, not the solution. It is time for brown to go, he is not upto the post of PM and is costing this country Jobs as he tries to gain political points off Britains economic future and gains neither.

Message to the PLP - Remove Gordon for the sake of the country, if you think like Brown - then please do it for your party. Gordon Brown is a monster, who shows that political point scoring his is main function in No.10.
