Gordon's Campaign Site
As Dizzy first broke (and Gordon's people denied and lied about) the Silverfish owned site GordonBrownforBritain.com has been launched. It has as always, pictures of Gordon with children and a Where is Gordon? google map. A Where's Gordon?™ Google map is not an innovative idea. Do they have any original ideas?

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Brown surrounds himself with a human shield of child hostages. Their cheesy grins one of the nastiest cases of Stockholm Syndrome I have ever seen.
Hands up who thinks I'm going to lose the next election.
Reading the guff on the front page he seems to believe in a Britain that he has helped to destroy:
one where "if you work hard you're better off; if you save, you're rewarded; if you play by the rules, we'll stand by you".
Personally, i find surrounding yourself with children for political purposes quite creepy. Especially at that age where they generally have no idea who you are. John Major had the right idea. He went to a sixth form college during the 97 election and a lad asked him:- 'do you think you'll win?' major of course replied - 'yes.' The entire assembly of kids laughed.
Aahhh, "FollowGordon"
hmm, taken literally, no thanks.
See someone's got Oona involved!
Perhaps a Scottish commenter could give the full variant of " Follow follow we will follow Gordon......"
Potential campaign song!!!
John Redwood had an interesting bit in the DT today, about Brown's great masterstroke of liberating the Bank of England. He argues, quite rightly, that he first took it's supervisory powers ( and penalties) away, then changed the rules as to inflation to make it easier to meet his own targets. The MPC members are now effectively all appointed by Brown.So don't think it's independant. I would be prepared to bet that if the rates go up again, there will be a Prime Minister stating that it's unneccessary.
Jesus wept, this is boring. Where's the fucking caption competiton?
Have all those children's parents signed consent forms?
John Redwood had an interesting bit in the DT today . . . CRIKEY!
that is one of the worst Photoshop lashups I've seen in a long time. Either that or he's on stilts.
"that is one of the worst Photoshop lashups I've seen in a long time. Either that or he's on stilts."
He's standing on the bodies of the fallen.
I think it borders on child abuse when politicians use kids as political shields. Hope all the kids get tested for lice, now they have been in contact with GB
Love the "what should the site talk about this week' bollocks. Surely he should be tackling everything. You can't run the country one bit at a time. Duh!
"once again earning the trust of the British people"...so he is admitting that currently thats not the case. Fair enough...
If this is the barnstorming start, he's really fucked.
How much has the site cost, who paid for it, how much work have silverfish got from HMG - remember how they removed all reference to it from the site when their dodgy relationship with brown first became public, well its now back on their site!
As you said Guido, the red terror is starting. Stalin's mates now have no fear of exposing their relationship with him, coz there's fuck all anyone can do about it
Funny shit.
Very first comment by Labour party member on Oona Kings blog under the "BLOG" section:
"Gordon came to campaign for us in Cardiff North during the recent Welsh Assembly elections and he was fantastic. "
Obviously he was fantastic; for the Tories.
Labour lost the seat!
Stupid CUNT!
Where's Gordon!?

For a supposedly professional website costing a fair few bob (is it all properly registered btw?), there are some pretty bad grammatical errors floating around.
Perhaps you need to get a new sub-editor Gordy.
This blog has become abuse for the sake of it.
Morons always take over intelligence when it's free.
I used to enjoy reading some very witty comments - the Chavs arrived - time to go.
I knew Gordon would try to make the Labour cabinet youthful to combat young Dave, but this is taking it a bit far. However, if one of these kids gets their act together, Prezza's legacy could be overshadowed...
What a coincidence, two horror sites launched in one day. The other is at www.hammerfilms.com
Just how many children can you get on a rocking horse?
Just how many children can you get on a rocking horse?
Whoever is running his recent campaign which always shows him with children needs to visit a doctor.

Good riddance.
Now piss off.

B
Do we assume that he has passed his CRB check to allow him to work with children.
Another minister breaking the law?
Where's Gay Gordon?
Hugging young boys in school uniform as usual.
'Follow, follow, we will follow Gordon,
Up the drains, Down the drains,
and in amongst the rats.'
Is there an innoculation available for the 2-3 years of absolute tedium that is looming down on us? It'll make John Major the Maastricht years seem an absolute blast.
Has he declared his campaign funding yet?
Be interesting to see where his funding coming from..
It the picture a fake - he appears to be photo shopped in
If Labour want to commit electoral suicide by making Gordon leader I say let 'em get on with it ! He can launch as many web sites and have as many photo opportunities as he likes.
We all know that Tony regards "Dave" as his natural successor anyway but perhaps that ought to be kept quiet as any endorsement from Blair is fatal to political ambition. Oops sorry didn't he just endorse Gordon for leader and PM ?
I have left the following on the get in touch page but I am not holding my breath for a reply!
"Why is it GB is always seen with kids? Have the police been informed as anyone else would be sus straight away. "Straight away" was not an intended pun."
You Decide: What should this site be talking about this week?
There's no "call an immediate general election" option I see
Anyone suggesting the picture has been photoshopped is auditioning for the role of Brown's defence counsel. It is a genuine image of a dirty old man exploiting gullible children for private advantage. Did he subsequently eat them for breakfast? I think we should be told...
Heard Adam Bolton say this morning that Gordos bid for the premiership was "A one horse race", ha! well he sure ain`t going to get far on his rocking horse !
The alternative picture was one with him surrounded by animals. Baaahh. However, the photoshopping query is legally interesting; is it required to have consent forms if the children were not there? Or is this one of those pseudo-photos which are also illegal if the children are shown in a degrading or compromising position? Could anyone who recognizes themselves sue for infringment of something or other if there is no consent form? Any lawyers on the loose?
It's P.F.I innit? Posing (with) Fucking Innocents. The kids probably don't give a monkeys who he is and wouldn't be able to name him given a hundred guesses. Hos is this different from the Blair Years - once a poseur always a poseur.
It's the same as the Blair years only worse. The video "The Future for Public Services" is totally content and policy free. Gordo comes across as a kind of grey scottish Michael Jackson who can't dance and whose 'Neverland' is a school cleverly bought at hyper rip off prices by pfi. What a strange website. Is his master plan to simply disenfranchise anyone over the age of 10 he can't bribe wih lollipops?
How long before the next 'mysterious' disappearance?
I have downloaded the image and studied it carefully in photoshop and there are no tell-tale signs of editing, so either it is genuine or a very sophisticated (and expensive) piece of work.
McNasty all over the pics of the launch. All in his lunch hour?
Guido - why've you changed the title of this post?
It used to say "First lie of the Campaign"
Lol. The link still reads "first-lie-of-gordons-campaign.html"...
http://www.order-order.com/2007/05/first-lie-of-gordons-campaign.html
I like the comments section ,bile green on white ,very readable not ,who put it together ,the school kids themselves, I suppose ,shouldnt have said that, the kids would make a better job.
Given that this clearly is a take-off of 'Bartlett for America', it'll be interesting to see what other West Wingisms begin to appear.
These are the rules Teachers Have to follow
Ensure that the written permission of the parent or carer is given before any pictures of a child are published, whether on an internal or external site.
Do different rules apply to Politicians?
But these photographs were taken in Schools, so surely the Rules do apply.
To get "Where's Gordon" do they have to have some kind of tracker bug on him? almost like he...has...been...tagged! How did he manage to get near those children?

A bloody good and valid point.
I have shot off a mail to his site asking for clarification on this - I don't expect any reply.
Tories about to do deal with SNP if SNP push for "green enterprise" policies - after SNP do deal with greens.
All in Broons back yard.
BBC says:
"That devotion to duty was underlined by a comment from his former girlfriend of five years, Princess Marguerite of Romania, the eldest daughter of ex-King Michael of Romania, who said a relationship with him was "politics, politics, politics."
Eh? WTF?
Is this true and was she fit?
(the first part that is ;-) )
Here is a picture of Gordon explaining the principles of nuclear radiation to Marie Curie.
Giving the lie to the assertion that he only likes posing with young 'uns.
cocksucker said...
Allegedly not fit for purpose!
Methinks that the time is now ripe to get the domain I bought a couple of months back, www.gordonbrown.it, up and running.
Bwahahahaha!
So he is now (after 10 years of doing the opposite) the listening man.
If 1983 was Labour's suicide note time then this is surely Labour's Lemmings time.
The cult of leadership already, Gordo has got the disease.
Are we sure it is in fact Gordo and not some clone ensuring there are no wandering hands and extremities.
The Source code on Gordon's site contains the following piece.
content="Gordon Brown, Labour Party, Prime Minister Candidate, Leadership Contender, Chancellor of the Exchequer,Where is Gordon
I thought you were taking the piss by referring to a 'Where is Gordon' section - but you are not !!!!!
Where can they have gotten that idea from one wonders !!!
Still, I am rather looking forward to seeing him becoming PM, as he is re-born in a new mode
If you save, you're rewarded...
Where's my pension then? Years of artificially low interest rates ring a bell?
If you play by the rules we'll stand by you...
Oh thanks, when are you all off to prison then?
Where's Gordon? The bunker dwelling loon posseses as sense irony at least, this is, after all, one of the most skittish and craven of politicians who released a book called Courage. Let's hope his next ironic production will be entitled 'Victory! (How I lost the election by a landslide).

I do believe Mr Fawkes you may have a case re"Where's Gordon"TM for passing off against Silverfish for breach of your Trade Mark.
Any trade mark specialists care to assist? Normal conditional fee arrangements apply of course.
I just think it's poor taste to wander around with a decapitated kiddy's noggin under your arm.
Either they haven't got comment moderation on or they are allowing anti Gordo comments.
Thusfar its 2 in the anti camp and 13 in the sun shines out of GB's arse camp
You have to register, but just set up a one off email account, and then you can post away
hahaha gordo is posting on his own webshite , do people realy say such bollox as that ? i think the astroturfers are out in farce.anyway heres my caption....gordon brown first among equals ,he has found people with the same grasp of the world as his.
anonymous 1:08 PM:
I believe that there is an innoculation against brownite-tedium, but it is only available within the UK welfare system in the form of a vaccination scheme known as 'compulsory state education' - which combines protection against nu labour spin, corruption and general incompetence. It is my professional duty, however, to make you aware of considerable controversy in medical circles as to whether this 'comprehensive' vaccine can trigger dangerous side-effects in young children - whose political-bullshit detection system may remain under-developed through lack of exposure to real politics. Current UK Government advice states that there is no proven link between the 'compulsory state education' jab and complete and utter stupidity.
The Times has said Gordo has a new haircut, but I've always thought he wore a wig. Does that count as a haircut?
The BBC has said Gordon had had his hair done differently.
It was very expensive & was lacquered within an inch of his life .... or something like that.
anonymous 1:39 PM
Interesting legal point...
here's another:
since this image clearly comes under the classification of 'child-pornography', should the police arrest:-
A: all members of the public who have viewed it?
or
B: just Gordon Brown ans his staff?
Actually, I think 'posession' is the criteria for prosecution so anybody who has visited the website is technically in posession as it causes a copy, temporary or otherwise, to be made. But if you've just been exposed to it by watching telly or if it goes on a poster campaign, you should be in the clear. So the answer is 'starting with Gordon and his staff and going on to everybody who uses the web and got boombed by it, including any television stations and billboard owners, but excluding analogue on-air viewers or innocent passers-by. But I'm not a lawyer, so what do I know? Nothing.
Brown's campaign launch is off to a shambolic , though amusing start, who could possibly have foreseen?
The next seven weeks of Brown out and about promise us much future amusement and embarrassment, sit back and squirm. It's in a good cause; Labour losing all their voters.
On the 'You Decide what we talk about thing' the options don't include 'the pension crisis'.
So much for listening to the people...
Gordon Brown four Britain (Scotland, England & Wales) Never could count.
Why not Gordon Brown for UK and its abbreviations!
urgh, that oona king is repulsive. she's got a face like a half-sucked malteser and a smile that's smug even by new-lav standards.

Aio, quantitas magna frumentorum est,
may i enquire as to your name means?
i haven't a fucking clue mate
Like his trouser caught in his sock ,I think the autocue was a fix,it has people thinking about him ,any advertising good or bad is good advertising,same with PR ,just a thought.
yeah...we would have thought about about him even more if he'd had a turd balanced on his head
Car-crash TV with Gordon, watch from behind the sofa.
Perhaps Gordo reads Guido.
He's pulled His School assemby picture from the home page and replaced it with USDAW
Prime Minister Bean
'Where's Gordon?'Does serve a public purpose for those who might want to avoid the calamitous attrocity exhibition of the next seven weeks as a socially inept personality deficient scottish bore loses all dignity vainly trying to persuade us all otherwise...

Auticuegate: Day One and he's already made himself a laughing stock.
no style no substance,
you miss the point here completely my good fellow...
the autocue has been strategically placed by blue-sky-thinking nu lab aides so as to cleverly afford Gordon the unique opportunity of giving his inaugural campaign speech whilst continuing to happily munch away on his bogeys in front of an utterly oblivious nation.
a fine example of the inspiring innovation which has kept new labour in power for the last 10 years
an elegant solution to a sticky problem
in fact a real slick move which i would have been proud to have pulled off myself.
absolutely brilliant.
Here in Scotland, few people believe the rumours about Mr Brown and Mr Douglas Alexander. I wonder what other posters think.
Gordo wrongly described himself as 'a prudent chancellor' today, as he finally handed over the money for some ice creams Blair stole in 2005.
All you Torys can stop taking the antdpressents now.Get on Gordons big dipper the seats are winding up to the very to top.The political ride is going to be fast down hill and then shoot up taking your dull bums on a ride you will not forget.
"Get on Gordons big dipper - taking your dull bums on a ride you will not forget."
