Should Gordon Brown be worried?

[chitchat]

Since Gordon Brown has taken over the PM's job, the UK has had the London and Glasgow terror alerts, extreme flooding in the North and Midlands/West and now foot and mouth.

Is this just a strange coincidence or is he just unlucky?

[lovejoy]

I don,t see how Gordon Brown can be responsible for weather conditions or foot and mouth disease or terrorist attacks

[Gromit]

Nothing to do with Gordon Brown. It is just a sign of the impending apocalyse as prophesied in the book of revelations. As you will know, these are represented on Earth by the four horsemen riding different coloured steeds, each representing:

War -
Iraq
Famine -
Floods have ruined the crops
Pestilence -
Foot and Mouth
Death -
The antichrist AKA David Cameron, he makes policies on the hoof.

I think it is probably a very sinister conspiracy. Not yet sure who the parties are that have cunningly created this chaos with the intent of the bringing down of Gordon.

ruby27 - it's a secret brotherhood ( funny handshake and all that ) hired by David Cameron - probably the same one hired to do away with princess dianna - dont you know .

I know that Gordon is not personally responsible but he must be thinking what next. He has only been in office a matter of a few weeks and he has deal with 3 major emergencies. I wouldnt want to be in his shoes.

Hi Gromit! I didn't think it would be long, before someone pointed that out. I had thought about it though.

Never a frown with Gordon Brown.

He should resign! TB was a great leader!

[dyli795]

Is that some kind of a cryptic joke Thrasher ?

[dyli795]

An anagram perhaps ?

[Thrasher1504]

@Dyli795:

No, serious. I think Tony Blair waqs a great leader.

His party let him down.

[sp1814]

On an entirely unrelated matter, did you know that an anagram of 'Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher'
anagrams to "I'm the Grantham Premier", cries tart!'

'... When troubles come they come not in single spys but in batallions...' (Or something like that anyway).

Although I'm sure Brown is not exactly doing the conga round the houses of parliment about the floods, Iraq etc... at least some of the stuff that is going on is giving him a chance to show leadership.

Just a thought...

I think its all been hyped up to make Gordon Brown look wonderful, especially as he had to cut short his holiday to return for the emergency committee meetings.
