Brown apology

 I am quite surprised to see that Gordon Brown has publicly apologised for the emails sent by McBride in an attempt to smear key Tory figures. It was quite some time coming, I have to say. Even the content of the letter that he wrote to those involved did not include the word ‘sorry’ as I understand it.

I believe Derek Draper has also apologised for his role in it all too by now. Brown was ‘horrified and shocked’, and he wants to make sure that ‘everything is done to clean up politics in this country‘, and he assures us that ‘this can’t happen again.‘  Well, I jolly well hope so too, although I don’t believe that this type of thing will disappear from politics ever.

At least he’s apologised now, which is more than his predecessor Tony Blair could muster when he took us in to an illegal war in Iraq.

  1. Just when the Damien Green affair was to come public news once again, A Campbell and P Mendelson advised Gordon the Clown that it was the best time to say ‘sorry’, of cousre, desgined to divert attention for Jacqui Smith sorry handling of the whole affair. Typical opportunist spin by NuLabour, it disgusts me.
