[video] Gordon Brown: Wiring a web for global good

[mattx]

His words are full of good intentions but he has no awareness about the real situations.

You may not agree with his politics but this talk is rather good.

Yeah well done, now do you fancy actually doing something about it Gordon?

 

He talks about all these countries which are opressing their people yet he is part of a government who has went to war with 2 countries over oil, under the guise of "fighting opressive regeims and terrorism".

 

He talks about climate change yet is part of the government who has pushed back our countries only viable means of clean electricity; nuclear.

 

He talks about the global recession yet he is personally responsible for leading Britian into a situation where we are one of the countries least prepared to cope with it.

i can't believe you watched all of his speech sparky, if i wanted an endless stream of soundbites from a prat of a PM i'd join the labour party, or select the least worst option of watching the parliament channel.

 

what i found ironic is that toward the beginning he said 'we do believe in something bigger than ourselves', i'm not sure the rest of the labour party would ever associate that statement with Gordon. The man desperate and obsessive about being PM above anything else. The Iron chancellor obsessed with his own legacy rather than rebalancing the economy. There's nothing bigger than gordon's ego.

 

And you highlight the abysmal record of his own party on key issues.

 

Remember his 'saving the world' freudian slip in the commons. Sheer hubris is what i associate with this character.
