From the BBC:

Gordon Brown has arrived in Belfast for talks with Northern Ireland's political leaders in a bid to resolve a deepening row at Stormont.

What fresh insanity is this? Gordon Brown has been sent somewhere to help stop a row? What the fuck is all that about? Brown is a magnet for resentment, rage and hatred. Wherever you send him, there will be aggravation. Sending Gordon Brown to try to resolve a deepening row would be like sending Pol Pot to stop a likely genocide. It is a fucking dumb idea.
