THE MCBRIDE PRINCIPLES…

Am I alone in being far from surprised that Gordon Brown’s long term media attack dog, Damian McBride chose BBC “5 Live” to start the process of trying to restore his fortunes? I just knew that Victoria Derbyshire had to have some purpose in life and now we know what it is! It’s also interesting to observe how McBride is still trying to serve his master, the Dear Leader, by claiming he was “so angry” when McBride divulged the contents of his emails, that “he could not talk”.

Well, as far as I am concerned silencing McDoom for a few moments was an unexpected act of public service on the part of the loathsome McBride. But this is self-serving tripe. McBride is asking us to suspend all reason and accept that Brown was unaware of his particularly vicious style of media manipulation hence the alleged “anger”! But it was precisely that quality that appealed to Brown and which made McBride so invaluable to him during the long years in the Treasury bunker! This is more spinning and it is telling that the BBC was McBride’s preferred media outlet.
