3% Tory Lead Finishes Gordon's Miserable Week
Can you imagine the cackling of Cherie Blair? Tony sat beside her on the sofa drinking a decent bottle of Barolo, TV remote in hand, repeatedly rewinding the videotape of PMQs and cheering on Cameron in between sips of the wine, tears of laughter rolling down his cheeks.
Labour MPs in marginal seats this weekend will be wondering what they have wrought. Three times Blair led them to victory, the latest poll shows that after just three months, Brown is a likely loser, along with their seats.
The Tories really should consider sending Tom Watson a bottle of champagne for his part in Blair's downfall, particularly after he lost that £100 bet with Cameron...

Ouch. Gordon Brown must be wiping away the tears after reading that one. Hopefully the Labour Party blunders will keep rolling on for many months.
Gordo is the new comical Ali he speaks and gesticulates wildly but his witterings bear little resemblance to reality.As tho cherie and tone laughing its deserved i hate to say this but she was right about gordo the mans a shit!!
Buon Giorno, Signor Guido
Si triste
It is a Truth universally acknowledged that for a young man (ie any chap or chapess under the age of 75) in possession of a Good Fortune (ie a Labour MP getting his average £113,000 untaxed expense allowances, there is nothing so sad as unRequited Love

LABOUR MPs (?) LOOKING FOR NEW CAREERS AFTER NEXT ELECTION
Mrs Dean & Mr Todd (Burton & neighbouring South Derbyshire - the best of Counties) will not be standing again at the next Election
Now why would that be ?

No surprise.
Brown was a miserable man before he became PM.
Foot and mouth? He created the problem with his funding cutbacks and cancelling his holiday did nothing: the outbreak spread.
Floods? He did nothing, the rains stopped.
Terrorism? Some twats plotted to drive into a regional airport, it's hardly a spectacular.
Northern Rock? He created the rules that mean the Bank of England, the FSA and the Treasury are simultaneously trying to blame each other.
What's worse is that under Labour, the average take home pay for the poorest households is shrinking. In other words, the poor are getting poorer. Did these bank benchers go into politics to make the poorest poorer, to give IHT tax to the rich and to halve the CGT tax on overnight speculation and antique trading?
There was a particularly scrofulous and toadying mp called brian white, VOTE OK did for him at the last election.
Straight back on the public sector/ quango gravy train and now advertises his unique business skills in dealing with regulatory issues.
A stake through the heart is the only way to get these parasites off the public's back !
On Newsnight last night:Harriet Harman gave a clear 'no' to a referendum IN ANY CASE.Dimbleby ignored that and asked her the question A SECOND TIME.Allowing her to give the proper line about 'red lines' and as those would not be breached,the need for a referendum 'would not arise'.I hope a Conservative spokesman will point that out.There's enough clever editing at the BBC,pro-Labour,we don't need a return to blatant bias.(It was very near the end of the programme if anyone has a link to a recording).
While many Labour MPs didn't go into politics to stuff the poor, that is exactly what they have allowed Brown to do with tax credits and marginal tax rates. They voted for it and we can see the results.
The upshot for them is that even though the system makes for poorer poor, it increases the poor's dependency on further state largesse prolonging their comfy careers.
The pressure is building on Brown to hold a EU referendum on the so called "amending treaty". Michael Connarty, Chairmain Commons European Scrutiny Committee has yet again said " the governments 'red lines' are unravelling" Come to think of it so is Gordon - AND - that "damn" e-petition keeps soaring 8823 at last count.

Gordon is un-fazed by the polls (good or bad) so presumeably this will wash over him.
My confirmation email for the e-petition just came through - 3 days late!

So was Chauchesceau but it didn't wash over him too well !!!!!
It's all falling apart for Glorious Leader Uncle Brown. He is down to a tiny rump of uber-Brownites still prepared to come out and defend him publicly.
Even Polly Toynbee has pushed him to the floor and stamped on his head with size ten boots in today's Guardian.

Mitch, On the contrary Brown is an extremely thin-skinned, self-obsessed, egotist who studies every poll to the umpteenth degree to assess the possible consequences for himself.
He cannot stand any sort of meaningful opposition whatsoever and the growing clamour and ridicule raised against him at the moment will be terrifying him and will probably push him over the edge again if it continues.
He is clearly unfit for the office of Prime Minister and it is more than a little worrying what such an unstable, ego-obsessed creature will do to try to reassert his authority which has almost completely gone in recent days.
How did we ever allow such a damaged wretch become PM?
Darling must have seen it coming, which is why he dropped the rate of CGT on MP's second homes from 40% to 18%.
How long before people clamour for Blair again? Not long. Its a temporary blip. But Brown has made so many stupid mistakes. I expected better judgement.
Come back Tony, all is forgiven :-(
After his distressing public meltdown on TV last night I hope that poor Derek Draper is today receiving the medical treatment he clearly needs.
Off topic, re the sudden resignation of the Chief Executive of Maidstone Hospital - her husband was the Chief Executive of a Hospital Trust in Essex, and resigned out of the blue last week when it transpired that the Trust's debt had risen from the forecast £14 mill to £34 million.
So, two golden handshakes in one family for two jobs badly done (don't believe Johnson will be able to withhold her award if it's in her contract).
Wish I worked in the public sector.
"the growing clamour and ridicule raised against him at the moment will be terrifying him and will probably push him over the edge again if it continues."
Joking aside, I can really see this happening to the guy. I saw this happen to a guy I knew once. Good guy - but very ambitious. Always pushing for promotion. Problem was he rapidly got promoted to a high pressure position. He couldn't take the stress and within 6 months he came apart. Total nervous breakdown. Not nice to watch I can tell you. Seeing another human being reduced to a wreck is not funny.
I can see this happening to Gordon. I think he has low self-esteem and is forced to push for ever higher levels of career success to cover up his low self-esteem, regardless of the means he uses to achieve it. I think he sees little personal victories against his adversaries as necessary for his self-esteem and is addicted to them. Politics was probably the perfect place for him to feed his self-esteem. Problem is he has now risen to the top and the only way is down. The constant criticism could very well tear him apart.
The man's scared. You can see it in his body language. He hides behind a lectern when he speaks. He pleads with the Speaker of the House when the opposition attack him. I don't think he an go on much longer like this.

I'd rather cut off my dick than see Bliar and his greedy cow back again!!!
(on second thoughts I'd rather cut off your dick!)
Here's to many miserable weeks to come.
Without taking anything away from Gordon Brown's handling since becoming PM, lets not forget that under Tony Blair NuLab were worse off, with Tony's authority weaker even than that of Mings, and his trust rating was minus a billion (ok slight exageration but only just)!
Been doing some calculations - how old will each sitting Tory MP be at the next election?
Was just wondering how many of those lovely seats will go to sub standard women.
When was this poll taken? My guess it was last week, and therefore before Gorgon's latest problems arose.
The black dog's returned so Brown's back on the seroxat apparently, and mogadon to help him sleep at night.
I hope he remembers not to mix it with the malt.
What a bloody mess!

Funnier though than having one of Mr Hoon's smart bombs come through the roof and eviscerate your children for Democracy, eh? This is no Shakespeare tragedy, just the expensive whores playing up in the national knocking shop; to try to make it tragedy is to puff up their already intolerable egos.
Running around on fire after a visit from Uncle Sam's momma's boy psychokiller napalm technicians, that's really not funny. Getting killed by lazy dirtybastard doctors in UK hospitals that's not funny. Oh, and coming home dead from Eye-rack with other peoples arms and legs sewn onto your body so badly that the undertaker says what the fuck's going on here ? That's not exactly hilarious, next of kin not rolling in the fucking aisles, I'll bet.
Brown's personal sorrows are of his own and his mad father's making and are minuscule compared with those he has wrought on others. He deserves no sympathy.
Famous Polish poet Jan Donneski make poem to say no man island is, divorce from main .....send not ask for whom bell toll, certainly not toll for deranged,warmongering, snot-eating Son of Fucking Manse.
No bells, no eulogy. Make stake in heart.
That deranged psycho-cunt Brown may be cracking up before our very eyes but he'll get no fucking sympathy from me.
Isn't that strange, when Labour had a double digit lead in the polls, Guido never mentioned it once.
Is a 3% lead, with all the shit Labour's been in that brilliant?
Still not enough for a Tory government with a working majority.
Snotty Ole Grumpy funked on a Saturday,
S"Marr"med on a Sunday,
Flanelled on a Monday,
Stole on a Tuesday,
Exploded on a Wednesday,
Disappeared on a Thursday.
That was the end of Snotty Ole Grumpy.
Low self-esteem? Well the one-eyed snot eating cunt, is right about that at least.
To make matters worse for him the e-petition has passed the 10,000 mark in the 48 hours since Brown made this terrible gaff. That's about one signature every 17 seconds. Looks like the tories have finally got their act together.

enjoyed your little poem, can yu do one on Darling darling
"Isn't that strange, when Labour had a double digit lead in the polls, Guido never mentioned it once."
Umm, actually he mentioned it several times.
"Is a 3% lead, with all the shit Labour's been in that brilliant?"
Well you said it - the shit that Labour's been in. And as you say, a 13 point lead last week, a 3% deficit this week. That's a 16 point swing in 7 days. It'll all be over by Christmas at that rate.
"Still not enough for a Tory government with a working majority."
Wouldn't bet on it. Labour know full well that the Tory policies are aimed at picking off the very marginals they need to win to gain control. And it helps a lot that the Libs are failing so badly. Brown appeals to voters in the Labour heartlands where extra votes don't help at all.
Let us have a e-petiton for Ming to be painlessly put-down. Perhaps a trip to Maidstone hospital will do the trick?
Brown did so much to destabilise Blair, that it has ricocheted on him too. At least Blair didn't make such stupid mistakes, and did not get caught lying. What would Gordon's Father, the presbyterian minister, have said?

thanks
red despot spotter
Gordon really is our Sub-Prime Minister
As a Presbyterian minister, Father Brown may never have told a lie, but whoever heard a Minister of the Kirk tell the truth? Presbyterianism is a snare and a delusion.
What ever the polls say we still have a yellow Party of the New World Order between a blue New World Order party and a red New World Order party. So the Lib/Dems have finally lost their purpose and will now vanish up their own back sides.
