Brown v Nutt

[ffutures]

Just watching the Prof. Nutt thing re cannabis etc. on the news; Gordon Brown really is staggeringly inept, isn't he...

All he really needed to do was say "thanks, we'll consider it the next time we look at this legislation" then forget about it for a few months. Or better yet, do something about it. But no, not a chance.

Roll on the next election...

It is quite staggering how Brown always manages to find a way to turn a hiccup into a crashing screaming disaster.

I suspect it might be a symptom of somebody trying to control everything, leading to losing a grip on it all.

Sad thing is I think if he could just be less of a control-freak, he'd probably be a very good prime minister.

You may be right, but I doubt it'll ever happen. And some of their current decisions, e.g. privatising everything, have been staggeringly inept.

Yep. They've managed to alienate just about everybody.

And then every week it seems they send Mandelsohn out to annoy some other group. Last week it was the post office workers. This week it was all internet users.
