I despise Brown, purely for the reason he took power, wasnt elected and has then done nothing good with it at all. He was handed the keys to the kingdom and chose to do nothing of significance. When your lasting legacy will be massive debt then your whole tenure has been completely pointless.

That said Cameron is hardly going to be the most useful of prime ministers, another power hungry waster who will achieve nothing of note and spend their time in charge occupying themselves with small changes to relatively inconsequential issues than doing doing something of merit.

Neither of them are a lesser evil, they are both arsing around making mountains out of molehills to distract us from the real issues. Besides voting for Idi Amin because he isnt quite as bad as Hitler is no real excuse

You sir are a fool! Brown was elected.

gordon brown succeeded tony blair in june 2007 as labour party leader but he was never "elected"

You sir are also a tool!!

Brown was elected.

It still surprises me, although it shouldn't, that some of the electorate believe that you actually do elect a Prime Minister.

Its what the sun paper tells us though isn’t It?

It surprises me the a large part of the electorate fell for some not particularly clever word play to justify what happened.

brown was never elect by the populace, 2 small towns in scotland are the only places to ever vote for Gordon Brown to represent them

a Brown led party was never elected by the populace of the country he governs. Which is my point, he never had to pander to our ridiculous media to get himself elected, he never had to do the dance with the devil and compromise. He has nothing to lose, he could be revolutionary, he can be controversial, he can ignore petty party politics because he never got elected and never will. He could have done some real good but he chose not to. He chose to make minor changes to fiscal policy and erode some liberties we have had for hundreds of years.

My problem with him isnt what he has done, but what he hasnt. We have massive social problems in this country that arent even being addressed at all because people are being distracted by inconsequential arguments over what kind of scarf an Asian lady has on her head.

Gordon Brown wont be remebered as a bad Prime-minister, he wont be remembered at all

No Prime Minister has ever been elected - they are all 'invited to serve' by the reigning monarch.

As for Cameron, anyone who thinks there is nothing much to choose between him and a Labour PM has no understanding of history, and certainly hasn't had the misfortune to come across the arrogance of the public school elite he represents. I can't imagine anyone less in tune with the values of Rugby League supporters.

bit of an over reaction, I doubt this thread would be much different if he had told rhinos fans to go themselves, that he felt it worth mentioning is good for rugby league's profile

and there is nothing wrong with going to a good school!

And what have you learned about reading daily opinion papers ?

Given the way Brown has alienated alot of the population and the general web of lies and spin that Labour have become embroiled in has virtually handed the Tories the best chance in yrs of getting into government.
I know full well what a Tory government was like and have not forgotten the history of their reign but if you think that there's a massive gulf between them in terms of choice the current opinion polls say different and just to add both major parties have a hell of lot do between now and the election to win my vote.

Why don't you lot have a go at running the country? I'm sure you will have it sorted in no time.

Supporters club the new parliament?

I'd prefer the people the country elected doing the job right in the 1st place!!

Always been a Leeds RL supporter always will be.
