Broon in the States

[Govangirl]

I am quite prepared for a backlash here but I've just watched the news and heard Brown's speech to Congress. I was really amazed at how impressed I was. He came across as a real statesman and the emotive speech was brilliant. I didn't agree with the Kennedy honorary knighthood - that's a disgrace - but the rest showed ambition and leadership.

I don't think his ambition has ever been in question ....

Looked to me like he was preparing the ground for a future career in after-dinner speaking.

Its possible it is all over for New Labour, it is a good job we have a viable, dynamic opposition waiting to sort out the problems. Oh, hold on I think I have just spotted a flaw.

I'm well aware of the disappointment in Labour and in the leader but that's why I was so taken aback - it genuinely was good, and credit where's credit due, I say. And Gizmo's right, there is no-one - no-one at all, to replace him from ANY party.

Which is why the Andrew Marr Show was interesting this morning. It feature a guy I had never heard of, Sir Paul Judge, who was setting up effectively a "No Party" Party. The political movement called "Jury Team" will support good Independent Candidates all over the country financially. So we could have a Parliament made up of single issue candidates with their own individual ideas and untainted with greed and sleeze.

Cannot see it catching on but an interesting concept nonetheless.

i think they failed on every thing,the countrys a mess and people know it.homeowners were only too happy to ignore it all as their property went up every week.now the chickens are coming home to roost,the cold wind of reality is blowing our way.blair brown and their cohorts have overseen the destruction of the uk.what chance have our kids got now?a new way of thinking is needed and the labour party is populated by pygmys and sleazeballs,the tories aint much better.where are the men of vision when we need them?
ah well maybe id cards allround and cutting the dole will help,plus some more database"s and cctv.Welcometo Britain 2009.
