WHERE’S WALLY?

Once such a BBC hero, he’s been hard to find since May 2010. Biased BBC’s Alan asks;

Victoria Derbyshire asks (48 mins in ) ‘What’s happened to Gordon Brown?’ as he seems to have disappeared making only about 3 appearances in Parliament since he was deposed.

A fair enough question, one that many people have been asking.

It went along the lines of ‘He’s made a few mistakes, not of his making though…but what a good bloke he is really…so misunderstood…the people love him.’  And did you know that the financial crash wasn’t really his fault…he was just unlucky, bad timing…he took on a poisoned chalice.

Hmmm…the economy was starting to boom in 1997…by 2000 it was in surplus…no debt in sight….and then Gordon Brown began to spend…and tax…and spend and tax….just like every other Labour government that sent the economy into a tailspin.

Just think what Gordon would have done to an economy that was in trouble when he took over!

Whilst flagging up people’s doubts about him it seemed only as an excuse to exonerate him of his misdemeanours…his very own Leveson Inquiry in reverse….finding the Glory rather than the Guilt.

The Glory of Gordon was burnished to a high shine….he is a secular saint almost….although jetting around the world getting highly paid for doing the odd speech you must know that not a penny goes into the pocket of the venerable Brown, his sole income being his meagre MP’s salary that he ekes a living out of (an austere one?).

A salary that he doesn’t seem to earn as a member of Parliament, one elected to represent his constituency in Parliament overseeing or proposing new legislation and seeking to improve the lives of his constituents via that legislation.

Apparently the reason he fails to turn up is because he is subject to ‘Tory vitriol’ when he does….this being the man who had raging temper tantrums and made angry phone calls to opponents and newspaper editors who didn’t say what he wanted them to say….that’s when he wasn’t throwing the phones around.

Apart from the nasty Tory Yahboos he is too busy helping the Third World to do any work here….there are 67 million children living in poverty and he is on a mission to save them all.

He could of course start in the UK where the poverty rates and inequality went up under his government.

Good of the BBC to keep us informed.

Shame they couldn’t find the same time to talk about Labour’s open door immigration policies and the effects it has had on the working classes here….and on education, health and welfare, housing, roads and crime.

13 years of Labour….it was just a dream, it never happened. lalalalala….

    Indeed. Not a single negative mention of Gordon Brown in the past 2 years. An incredible feat when you consider it and one that could only happen with institutional bias and control of editorial input. Did she really say the people loved him? In bygone days he’d have his head on a spike at the city gates.

      P.S. acknowledging that even when he was in power he wasn’t ever given the negative, antagonistic and aggressive treatment that Conservatives get, EVER.

    His and Labour’s constant use of the word ‘Global’ when explaining that the financial crash had nothing to do with the government still goes unchallenged on the BBC.
    In truth, Britain was second only to America as a player in the banking and finance industry so everything done here by Brown and Balls created the global crisis while their running up of debt in the UK was an integral part of the banks’ over-lending bubble.

    ‘….there are 67 million children living in poverty and he is on a mission to save them all’. Funny, I thought he’d saved the whole world a few years back. Oh, and he abolished boom and bust.

    In reality, he pretty well single-handedly brought this country to it’s knees, which is what the BBC really admire him for.

      I think the lefties have classed children as living in poverty because their pocket money is below the minimum wage, even though most of them get very fat on the food they buy at the shops. Gordon Brown is to blame because he failed to raise Child Benefits above the minimum wage.

        I read somewhere recently that the modern definition of child poverty includes two or more children sharing a bedroom.
        And one head of a so-called children’s ‘charity’ was on the Vine show some months back arguing that lack of Sky TV was also an indication of poverty, as it is now an essential for keeping the kids entertained. I kid you not.
        These charities (mostly government funded – spawned by Labour) are nothing to do with giving families a leg-up in life, and more about re-distribution of wealth.

    Not much danger of him doing anything, of course-the craven custard yellowtail writes ABOUT courage….but won`t show up to Parliament lest the Tories are rotten to him.
    Hardly Jan Palach is it?
    Loved too the notion of wee Gordon shyly being forced into Number 10, contrary to that impression we all got. That him and his pondscum “followers” somehow badgered abused and hounded the smoother cretin Blair out of office.
    Perish the thought.
    History as a moveable feast…phone it in and let the BBC mould it to Labours purring satisfaction.
    Despicable-but no surprise.

    Oh, poor Gordon! What a joke. Obviously this isn’t BBC bias because they got around to talking about this after only two years, right? Devil’s advocate questions to set up each talking point from Mr. Brown’s defense team. The giggle feigning surprise from the male Beeboid when Derbyshire asked about how Brown’s earnings compared to Blair’s was so obviously an act. How stupid do they think you are?

    What an utter joke to say that it’s only a Tory position that Mr. Brown was partially responsible for the financial crisis. Complaints about selling all the gold and unsustainable spending are just Tory “attacks”. Pretty dishonest as well to suggest that he was forced into being PM.

    Well, his constituency loves him, so all complaints are worthless. He tells the children about Nelson Mandela! What more could you ask for? That’s the message I got. Plus the explanation that he wasn’t responsible for any of the country’s problems, and any suggestions to the contrary are just partisan attacks.

      So where are Dez Boy and his ilk when broadcasts like Derbyshire’s are being debated? Solid proof of the corrosive Labour bias at the heart of our public broadcaster, allegedly revered across the world for its intelligence and impartiality.
      The undisguised arrogance of the likes of Derbyshire, stuffing their bias in our faces with a ‘well, what are you going to do about it’ smirk (ok, I know it’s radio), is truly sickening, and is seriously undermining democracy in this country.

    A tragic legend in his own lifetime.

    In his mind he was robbed of PMship and when he did grasp that glittering prize it turned into the mother of all poisoned chalices.

    Whereas Blair’s cunning and political adroitness steered him through, Brown bullied, blustered and blatantly lied riding an ego unmatched by economic knowledge or any discernible trace of honest self reflection.

    Despite the BBC’s promotion of this Scottish slug which worked for around six months, his very own insane personality dragged him down and he just could not admit any fault of his own.

    Good generals always, in the event of initial failure have plan B’s. The Romans excelled at this as did Monty at El Alamein. Brown, buried in his narcissism expected to ride the crest from the word go and rather than adapt just kept on digging.

    However when I look at the present lot I wonder if we are doomed to be ruled by mediocrity. By rights Cameron had an easy, open goal and all he ended up with was a pathetic draw. And it gets worse as even Miliband can edge nine points ahead.

    The public have indicated what they want and the tin ears waft airily on in a vapid plume of exotically and expensively perfumed contentment.

    What actually does, or will it take?

      ‘However when I look at the present lot I wonder if we are doomed to be ruled by mediocrity’.
      Couldn’t agree more. Career politicians most of them, with no experience of working in the real world (and I don’t mean the public sector) and most hardly fit to be your local councillor.
      Not only that, they make themselves millionaires whilst they’re at it, funding second homes at taxpayers’ expense then making a small fortune in equity when they sell (‘flipping’ effortlessly whilst they’re at it).
      Millibean and his class warriors snipe constantly at the ‘millionaire cabinet’, but it would be interesting to know how many on the Labour front bench, and minsters in the previous government, made themselves millions from a taxpayer-funded career.

    Brown has been a disaster for the UK. Taxpayers are paying him thousands a year to represent his constituency, does he? Where is he? Milking the lecture circuit and ignoring his voters and parliament. He has destroyed millions of peoples pensions as well as leaving the country in massive debt. As for ‘keeping us out of the Euro’, i’ve got another angle on that. My bet is that he kept us out to spite Blair, and for no other reason, it would be in his selfish nature to do so. But if Blair was for keeping the pound, HE would have ensured that we joined, tell me i’m wrong. He is a nasty, vindictive creature, seriously.

    Have not listened to it, the mere thought of Derbyshire waxing lyrical about Brown, is obscene. However was is not explained is one of the reasons Brown has not shown up. Clearly if Brown turned up he would be held accountable for the disaster he headed. But if he resigns he can be referred too, but as an MP, Parliamentary convention means he cannot be talked about unless he is in the chamber. This way he stays out of the news. The hypocrite wrote a book about heroes, only to show he is a coward unable to be held responsible.
