Where's Gordo? Who Cares?
Gordon Brown - where is he now? asks The Daily Telegraph. I'd like to answer a question with a question here - who fucking cares?
The fact that Gordo seems to have disappeared off the radar since the General Election can only be a good thing. I mean, it took long enough for him to leave Downing Street after that election - normally, Prime Ministers go if they are defeated. Not Gordo. Showing a complete lack of dignity, he clung on until the Liberal Democrats made it very clear that they fancied the Tories more than the Labour party. Only then, when there was absolutely no case to be made, however tenuous, for his ongoing occupancy of Number 10, did he go.
And when he was Prime Minister (and, for that matter, Chancellor) the truth is that he was a complete disaster. Basically, he did more than anyone else across the 13 years of Nu Labour misrule to completely fuck up this country. Every decision that was made he was either at the heart of, or he failed to resist it - and he was consistently at the top of the Nu Labour tree.
Where's Gordon Brown? Sulking in Scotland - powerless and rejected. And you'll have to forgive me if I express the hope that we never, ever hear from Gordon Brown again. Unless he happens to come forward to offer his sincere apologies to the British people for his myriad failings while in power. And he should, preferably, offer reparations to the British taxpayer at the same time.

Yup a complete disaster, agreed, but I do think that the occasional check through the news feeds and blogosphere to keep an eye on what the ex-prime mentalist is up to is probably a good idea.
Without getting too far into tin-foiled hat terrority, things have been a bit too quiet since he got booted out of number 10, I recall a story somewhere that the possibility of him going to the IMF?
Just because the puppetmaster has taken someone of the stage, doesn't mean he's not going to make another entrance in some other guise in later chapters...
who fucking cares?
Um, I do. And I suspect the denizens of Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath do as well.
He's getting paid, what - £1,264-a-week? - to do a job he clearly isn't.
He either gets back into parliament to represent his constituants, or he resigns forthwith.
Not sitting on his fat arse "writing his memoirs" or "recuperating" at the tax-payers expense.
The Brown Gorgon should either take his hand out the till or earn his keep. He can't have it both ways.
@PJH Didn't realise he was still sticking his snout in the trough to be honest, well not to the tune of £1,264 a week anyway.
As for him having it both ways, complete agreement, but history seems to point at him and his ilk having each both ways and more.
ps cool blog, I'll be following your posts with interest. :)
What PJH said ~ his constituents should care, they have a mentally deficient looser refusing to do the job they pay him to do, while he tries to feather his nest by writing a fookin' book.
Turn up, or stand down Gordo.
Fair point, I hadn't considered the fact that his constituents were still paying him to do fuck all.
So yes, I agree absolutely. He should either do his job of being a constituency representative or he should resign from Parliament.
The arrogant fucker will probably go on claiming for doing nothing though...
