“That was a disaster…”

… Well that ain’t the half of it. Brown has just made the most garbled apology imaginable on the Jeremy Vine show: “I apologise if I said anything like that.”  Well, unfortunately, Brown had, and Vine duly played the tape. Brown had to apologise again:

 “I apologise if I’ve said anything remotely hurtful…there were comments about immigration…which I didn’t get the chance to reply to…that were annoying…you’ve got to remember, it’s a case of me being helpful to the broadcasters who have recorded and played my private conversation.”

He might be cowering, but verbally Brown simply comes across as arrogant and unrepentant. Small wonder that politicians are loathed.

PS: Now with sound and video.
