Okay. So Richard Littlejohn's highly accurate and exceptionally factual attack on the hapless Gordon Brown is excellent.
Even so, he fails to even scratch the surface [I like split infinitives and its MY Blog!] of the quasi marxist ineptitude of the man during his extended stint as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
He wrecked private pensions by his wicked tax grab; he sold off our gold reserves for a handful of magic beans and his spendthrift ways have become the stuff of legend.
He has poured money into state expansion and quangos without ever seeking value. He promised to savagely cut bureaucracy and deceived us.
How could anybody have ever believed that this sad incompetent could move onto the highest office successfully?
The tories had had to muddle through 4 world recessions - Chancellor Gordon, none. He inherited a strong economy and wrecked it.
Just one thing to say which is not against him - assembling a cabinet must have been a dreadful task - in a Labour Party utterly devoid of skill, presence and ability, how can such a task of such magnitude be even contemplated?
Much damage can be averted, even at this late stage - GIVE FRANK FIELD A RING, GORDON!
