Has someone pirated WHOREOHSCOPE's account, he wasn't a troll before ?

They should play The Stranglers' 'Golden Brown' with the lyrics changed to 'Gordon Brown' on tv.

Gordon brown texture like sun
Lays me down with my mind he runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with Gordon Brown

Every time just like the last
On his ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with Gordon Brown

Gordon Brown finer temptress
Through the ages he's heading

West
From far away
Stays for a day
Never a frown with Gordon Brown

Never a frown
With Gordon Brown
Never a frown
With Gordon Brown

Haha I'm welsh?

im not a huge fan, but im glad to see a change, and its certainly a more positive change than having David Cameron as the new PM

Tokolosh 06.27.2007 09:37 AM

and Britain goes for a ball of shit?

jon boy 06.27.2007 09:42 AM

its who is going to be the deputy that makes me shiver.

MellySingsDoom 06.27.2007 10:30 AM

Ah yes, Harriet "Oh, I was against the Iraq war, but now I'm Deputy Leader, I've changed my mind" Harman. Expect plenty more of this calibre in the new Government.

Danny Himself 06.27.2007 10:33 AM

Gordon Brown is better than Tony Blair, there's no doubt about that, but he's still not that great. Bitch be obese.

jon boy 06.27.2007 10:47 AM

one good thing that may happen is that gordon wont be so under the thumb of george dubya and he may get rid of a lot of the current cabinet who dont seem to know their ass from their ass.

This pretty much sum's up my view.

Personally, it's nice to see someone with a pretty strong intellect in power. And, hopefully, we'll get a snap election and no Cameron as PM. I haven't got any strong pro-Labour feelings (I'd probably rest towards the sceptic side of things) but I am just about old enough, and have spoken to enough people who were genuinely old enough, to remember the poison of the Tories. It's a very rash way to have an opinion, but there you have it.

demonrail666 06.27.2007 02:54 PM

I'm prepared to vote for Labour with Brown in charge. Something I haven't been able to say about them under Blair's reign.

Hip Priest 06.27.2007 04:46 PM

I'm certainly glad to see the back of Blair, but it's sad that he's gone by choice rather than through shame, or by being hounded out of office.

Is Brown preferable? Yes, although that's not exactly saying much; in the final analysis, the horrendous Blair is being replaced by someone who has stood side-by-side with Blair, and anyone who has done that doesn't deserve a public position of any type as far as I'm concerned, let alone the leadership.

So it's impossible to say it's good because it's still labour. Labour might be 'old' labour. It might be 'old' labour dressed uBut it is still labour. So I still dislike it intensely.

Brown has the capability not to be utterly immoral and reviolting though. I suppose.

demonrail666 06.27.2007 04:49 PM

Ordinarily I'd refuse to vote for Brown, if only because of his close connection with Blair, but looking at how well the Tories are doing in the polls I'd have to bite my lip and vote for him, just to stop Cameron getting anywhere near no. 10.

Aww.. you beat me to it. :p

I wanna see him get in a fight with John Prescott.

MellySingsDoom 06.28.2007 07:46 AM

I note in today's Guardian that Iron Broon has taken on board a couple of private finance initiative bods, the same people who have given us sub-standard and hugely expensive schools, hospitals and prisons. Nice one, Gordon. I await with resignation the next step from the Clunking Fist.

Oh yes, and look who's heading the Justice Department, the wonderfully illiberal Jack Straw.

Iain 06.28.2007 07:58 AM

Ugh, Milliband as Foreign Secretary. Milliband is a total worm...I have an irrational dislike for the guy.
