Farewell, see you at the IMF!

Having just got my head around the fact that Gordon Brown was the devil incarnate, I suddenly find he has had a change of fortunes over the last 24 hours. Parliament, currently hung lower than asbo boys trousers, was certainly never going to let Mr Brown darken its doors again, but in a clash of the baddies more suited to a low budget James Bond  type film, Nick Clegg creepily emerged as the devious two faced negotioator, and Adam Boulton and his full frontal interviewing technique.  Not to mention Kay Burley. (No, best not, I might just say something a teensy weensy bit unflattering.) Suddenly, Gordon wasn’t quite such a moron after all. Announcing his resignation yesterday, flanked by Honest Sarah Brown, and with his gorgeous boys in tow, he said the words that melted everyone’s pacemakers “As I leave the second most important job I could ever hold, I cherish even more the first – as a husband and father” Ah, Bless.

So now he’s practically Saint Gordon. With Prime Minister Cameron and Deputy Nick Clegg, you might start to question if this is going to be “Dumb and Dumber- the politics years” I wonder how many times David will be heard to say “I agree with Nick” in the forthcoming days.

In the meantime, a little tribute to Gordon. As he retreats to Scotland to rest his weary bones, here’s a little number with him Rising the Stairway to Loch Leven. Bye Bye Brown!
