Blair and Brown, the story that keeps on running and running

" . . . one wonders what she is thinking now."

She'll be thinking:
"Party Conference soon, Conference soon. Don't get distracted and sign any - oh my goodness! - were they mortgage papers?!'
And repeat: "Conference soon, don't get distracted and sign any papers . . . "

Chuck Unsworth

'one wonders what she is thinking now.'

Tessa Jowell? Think?

Oh do come on. Wasn't she incapable of 'thinking' when she was signing the mortgage papers?

Simon

The present cabinet is full of "quiters not fighters", so hearing about Jowell is no surprise at all. Milliband, Johnson, Straw, Darling - all made from the same jelly.
Brown leaving before the next election, paradoxically, would require a degree of courage he definitely lacks - based on all previous experience.

I read that this morning and thought pretty much the same.

It then struck me there's one last throw of the dice. Call me a cynic, but During the Tory bash, don't be surprised to see a "National Emergency" situation develop, something the take the headlines away.

Nothing, and I mean nothing would surprise me to see something like a major terrorism plot be acted upon, or that's how it would be reported. I could even see a delay into doing the raid just to ensure that timing is to do as much damage as possible. It hasn't escaped their notice how limited the news coming from the last conference, when paired against the economic situation.

This Government acts in a manner that's lower than a snakes belly, of course if the threats there, it should be acted upon, but somehow I can't see the opportunity pass by where Brown won't "create" news/mischief at that time.

What a dreary inconsequential bunch of no-hopers; whoever let them out of the playground?

Victor Southern

Isn't she the Minister for Olympic Overspend? She can hardly resign and leave London with a commercial disaster. Labour would never do that, would they?

Replies about the Dome are not required.

Andrew Zalotocky

It's all so pathetic. The leader who can't lead. The followers who spend all their time formenting dinner party plots that they are afraid to put into action. It's more like a third-rate farce than real-life politics. How on earth did these contemptible little people ever get into any position of responsibility?

Graham Evans

Oh no Wight Tory, now you've done it! They'll that and use your idea! NuLabour steal all their ideas, just sit back and watch!

mitch

She doesn't think she gets her husband to do it for her and not say anything.

Everyone will know how boring I have been on this, but it is now a raging certainty that Brown will retire on health grounds.

This has the familiar Mandy modus operandi.

Drip feed it to the MSM, arrange for speculation to reach a crescendo a few months before the deed and then the execution.

viz. the smoking ban; "other countires are doing it" "we may do it" "we will do it but only to certain establishments" "we will do it but not to member's clubs" "we have done it everywhere".

So we've gone through phase 3 and are in the real softening up process prior to the announcement. Or execution.

This pair, this labour shower have sold this country down the river, totally.

In Britain today an online edition of a 'Telegraph' group newspaper has this statement:

The Government has refused to hold a referendum here. The Conservatives, however, have not ruled out offering a vote even if the treaty has become law by the time they come to power.

A “no” vote in Britain would then, according to experts, inevitably lead to Britain withdrawing from the treaty and effectively “de-ratifying” it across the Continent – throwing the EU into chaos and potentially forcing a large majority of member states to draw up a new treaty from which Britain would be excluded.

Such reporting is dangerous rubbish!

The British Government, following a conspiracy involving the timing of the take-over of power between Blair and Brown, the lying and manipulation of D. Milliband and M. Beckett and various parliamentary shenanigans unworthy in any democracy (but, shamefully, involving the three leaders of the main political parties) has already ratified the Lisbon Treaty, had it printed on animal skin, signed by the Queen and lodged in Rome).

Once the other 26 signatories similarly legally ratify that treaty it becomes binding on all 27 members for all time, only allowing withdrawal from its totalitarian and democracy destroying provisions by the trigger of its own withdrawal procedures, effectively requiring national castration and other even more severe forms of sovereign self-mutilation.

There is not, nor can there ever be the possibility of"- “de-ratifying” it across the Continent

The author of this dreadful piece of journalism,, suggesting de-ratification as a possibility is the following:

Read the entire article from this link, if like me you find such rubbish difficult to believe.

The Telegraph, once again, plumbs the depths - it remains an honour to continue to be black-listed from their Comment threads!

Good picture of the two whores men of England's apocalypse.

At what point when Blair and Brown were sharing an office did Blair realise that this bloke is seriously deranged?

Any Colour but Brown

"Blair and Brown, the story that keeps on running and running"

Well, Brown, certainly, keeps on running and running - although probably not for a general election, he'll be running from it.
