Brown a small town politician – Telegraph Blogs

The bizarre thing is that he seemed smaller. Gordon Brown should have looked, more than ever, like a national leader. All the props and accoutrements were in place: the tanks,When it comes to the bailouts, the hard Left is dead right – Telegraph Blo,chanel outlet, the soldiers, the phrases about the courage of our Servicemen and women.
Gordon Brown addresses British troops in BasraYet, by some trick of the desert light,outlet chanel, the Broon was a curiously diminished figure: no longer the Prime Minister speaking for the country,Mulberry bags, but a scheming party leader jostling for advantage.??This,burberry outlet, remember, is the man who promised to make important announcements first in Parliament. Yet here he is scuttling off to Iraq for the most petty of reasons: to drive the Tory conference off the front pages. Well, he's done that alright, but I doubt he'll be pleased with the outcome. In a reminder of everything we disliked and distrusted about him as Chancellor, the Broon turns out to be "reannouncing" the withdrawal of our Servicemen. He says that 1,000 troops are coming home for Christmas. In fact, 500 of them were due to do so anyway,ray ban uk, and some are already back in Britain.??My point is not to argue the pros and cons of an evacuation from Iraq (I am in favour of an expeditious withdrawal,hogan uomo, although not quite an immediate one: but that's another story).

Why,burberry borse, man, he did bestride the world like a colossus, and we petty men walked under his huge legs and peeped about to find ourselves dishonourable graves.??But look at him now: a calculating small town politician, prepared to snatch at our Armed Forces as a club with which to belabour his opponents. And all because he plans to call a November election, capitalising his assets before they are diminished by our familiarity with his faults.??The erudite Caroline Hope wondered, after my last posting, why I hadn't illustrated the Broon's state of mind by quoting the Dane: "now might I do it pat" etc. Fair point. Had the Prime Minister gone to the country a month ago, he would indeed have done it pat,Mulberry sale, catching us while we were still slightly awe-struck, and before we had clocked him as just another Labour politician. Now, though, we see him as he is: gross,Never mind if the new Commissioner is unqualified, at least shes a Europhil, full of bread; with all his crimes broad blown, as flush as May. Gordon, old son,ray ban wayfarer, you've left it too late.
