          In this day and age the fact he still writes long hand and finds the time speaks volumes. He stumbles yet again into another problem, this time Spellgate and all preventable by using Spellchecker. The man is a total loser and is at the helm, god help us all.

            I’ve just seen the letter in question on Sky. His handwriting is that of an average 5 year old. No wonder this country is up to its neck in the shit with a hopeless turd like that running it.

            Any info on what service of commemeration you attended?
            Interested to find out.

            Dear Sarah Broon (or however your fkin name is spelt)

            I am writing this letter to you on hearing the excellent news that your husband had a massive STROKE and finally died after two weeks of suffering in which the NHS failed to administer any drugs that would ease the pain.

            Your husband died after forcing himself upon the country and finally brining it to its knees. His death is a fitting tribute to the fucking mess he leave behind.

            Now you can go & remarry & hopefully get a decent shag. Now fuck off !

            Kind Regards

            Joe Public

            Gordon, you really are a fucking gold plated, first order, cast iron, Grade A1, all singing and dancing with lights bells and whistles loser of galactically epic proportions.
            Never in the field of loserdom has a greater, more proficient individual as yourself been spawned, hatched out on the sunny side of a brick wall.
            Only a complete imbecile could fuck up as many things as you have in such a short span of time.

            Thank fuck youre not on the same side as the enemy, the poor bastards would defect as soon as they found out.

            Please accept the “Iceberg” prize (everything he touches sinks) for the biggest, doziest most incomprehensible incompetent prat ever to pose as a leader on planet earth, or indeed any other planet.

          • Heir to Blair says:

            yes, Broon is pathetic at trying to justify the Afghan disaster

            but the fact is no-one can

            so when in a few months it becomes Camerons problem for the next 5 years those thinking he will have better luck had best remember that the REAL Tony Blair failed utterly to justify disasters like Iraq to a disbelieving public so his understudy will fare no better

            hoping this is going to go away or pretending it isn’t an issue might work for euroscetics and lisbon but it won’t for the Afghanistan occupation

          • jgm2 says:

            Afghanistan was a reaction to the friendly actions of the religion of Peace on Sept 11 2001. The problem is that the (at the time) plausible reason that a Taliban Afghanistan was a hot-bed of terrorist training camps has lost a lot of credibility thanks to the utterly unjustified war in Iraq. The religion of peace is only too happy to conflate the lies that got us involved in Iraq with the justification for getting involved in Afghanistan.

            And the general public, with the passage of time, is making the same association. Now, post Sept 11, on 12 Sept for example I would have simply nuked Jeddah since the whole shitpot ultimately stems from Saudi. Iraq War I was simply to stop Saddam rolling through Kuwait and uniting the whole peninsula under himself. Iraq II was simply to kill any conflicting witnesses.

            These wars are being fought to shield Saudi and its rulers from the righteous scorching it so richly deserves.

          • Mr Ned says:

            I also noticed that the TV coverage of the remembrance parade has lost it’s original meaning as there has been a complete shift in policy.

            It used to be to remember the sacrifice of the fallen in the defence of our sovereignty here at home and the defence against expansionist regimes invading foreign nations.

            Now it has morphed into propaganda for our expansionist invasions of foreign nations and definitely do not mention that “S” word now that our leaders are all united in giving it away!

            The only way to defend our Sovereignty is to vote UKIP!

          • Heir to Blair says:

            Try reading these two words.
            Taliban, Al Qaeda.

            Do you know why they sound and are spelled differently ?
            Yes, it is because they aren’t the same fucking thing, shit for brains.
            Al-Q is in P-Stan, Somalia, Indonesia and most of North Africa.
            Terrorists can and do move about the place.
            Where they aren’t is Afghanistan.

            What is this, the worst of Brown and Ainsworths justifications trotted out yet again ?
            Try googling 9/11 and you’ll find a certain Bin-L was behind it.
            We went into Afghanistan to take the fucker out.
            All the rest of the bullshit justifications for an 8 year occupation came afterwards.

            “The religion of peace is only too happy to conflate the lies that got us involved in Iraq with the justification for getting involved in Afghanistan.”

            Well Dubya is a born again christian and the original Blair was a christain but he switched to Catholicism. Broon boasts he is a son of the manse and Cam is C of E.

            They were and are the ones pushing the bullshit lies uphill against a public that doesn’t trust any of them.

            And the idea that terrorists need an entire country to ‘train’ for terrorist attacks is farcical nonsense. The logistics of 9/11 were mostly planned from a hotel in Hamburg. A room is all it takes.

            “These wars are being fought to shield Saudi and its rulers from the righteous scorching it so richly deserves.”

            We’ll ignore the juvenile Dr Strangelove shit but ultimately Bin-L is indeed all about toppling the ruling Saudi Royals.

            The neocons or anyone else aren’t about to nuke the biggest Oil supplier in the world and the country which houses some of the financial owners and backers of a sizeable chunk of Britain, America and other countries.

            Remember the old adage – “Follow the money”.
            Who finances these Jihadist rag-heads?
            Answer:- The Saudi State. (Institutionalised rag-heads par excellence!)
            Where does the Saudi State get its vast wealth?
            Answer:- From us, in every barrel of oil we buy.
            Final solution?

      Someone who is usually very critical of Gordon says:

      I must be the only person who is surprised that Gordon actually sends hand written letters to the families of our war dead. So what if he makes a few spelling mistakes at least he has made the effort, a very personal effort.

      Well done Gordon you have gone up in my estimation.

          De facto says:

          But a Servant when He Reigneth
          Is Confusion to the end.

          His feet are swift to tumult,
          His hands are slow to toil,
          His ears are deaf to reason,
          His lips are loud in broil.
          He knows no use for power
          Except to show his might.
          He gives no heed to judgment
          Unless it prove him right.

          Because he served a master
          Before his Kingship came,
          And hid in all disaster
          Behind his master’s name,
          So, when his Folly opens
          The unnecessary hells,
          A Servant when He Reigneth
          Throws the blame on some one else.

          His vows are lightly spoken,
          His faith is hard to bind,
          His trust is easy boken,
          He fears his fellow-kind.
          The nearest mob will move him
          To break the pledge he gave –
          Oh, a Servant when he Reigneth
          Is more than ever slave!

          Rudyard Kipling

            McFiveYrOld is just a lackey, always has been – but whose lackey, I’ve often wondered.

            Obviously the TGWU would not have a clue about Afghanistan, so I guess what happens is that some smiling stranger comes up to him and says “I’m a big shot from Dept A. That’s my bag, been at it for years, need you to do x, y, z, but we have to keep it out of the papers I’m afraid”, and McLackey, ever the son of the manse, ever so humble, simply defers to the man in the suit or the uniform, whether it’s ACPO, the spooks, the banksters, Sarkozy, O’bama, mad Hattie, whatever – anything as long as it might twit the nasty tories or make things more difficult for them. What a total creep.

        But if you can’t write then he should type the most of it and then apologise for that – no shame in that, except he probably sees it as a weakness and he gets angry if he thinks he’s weak which is why he doesn’t even admit to mistakes in the letter… no crossings out, no starting again.

        A man who can’t admit is own failings is no man; the weakest of all.

          Brown's a Tosser says:

          Why should he apologise for sending a typed letter. I have no problem with a type letter signed by his own hand. This would have been totally acceptable and understandable given his position. A professionally typed letter on Downing Street headed paper signed by the PM in his own hand would have been fine. Instead we have another f*ck Up.

          • Imperator says:

            Personally think this story is a non-issue. A bit pathetic that she gets so riled up about a spelling mistake, he is half-blind ffs.

            So he misspelled a name, so fucking what? Another case of someone waiting to be offended, like so many in the UK, if you really dont want to ever have to see your son come back in a body bag then don’t encourage a military career when we are actively involved in two theatres of conflict..

            Dislike brown as much as anyone else but this is clutching at straws and the fact that this is picking up what is in the Sun says it all, mind you Guido did refer to posters here as windowlickers, I guess he knows the score…

          • barefootcontessa says:

            No tat, I’m inclined to agree with Imperator. The gorgon is truly the pits, and his letter proves that he is out of touch with the electorate. It is sad that society still offers young men jobs in the army where they will be put at mortal danger when he probably only signs up because there are no other jobs in his area. These young men are trained killers, they would shoot you or I if we had the temerity to threaten those bastard politicians in the HoC, though I still feel sorry when they are killed, wasted in this manner, it is wrong. We shouldn’t be in Afghanistan, the first and second WWars were defensive conscript wars.
            Does nobody care about what happens to the Afghanis?

            Still seriously thinking of voting Independant.

          • tat says:

            men have lost their lives and yet gordon brown cannot be fucking arsed, despite having bad eyesight, to check or have checked for him the correct spelling of those who have fallen.
            he has enough c’unts spinning for him but not one person to check that he is honouring the dead by spelling their names correctly.
            you are full of shit imperator, fuck off you stupid ignorant c’unt.

            barefootcontessa, you are a decent person but on this issue you are wrong.
            it takes no time at all to check the names of the dead.
            brown just couldn’t be fucking arsed. he thinks it is below him and that he has better things to do.
            if he cannot be bothered he should fuck off out of it.
            ps imperator is a new labour war party troll. I wouldn’t believe a word that c’unt says.
            pps. good to here about your views on independents. on that issue you are 100% correct. you’re alright BFC.

          • D L George says:

            It doesn’t look like a fountain pen Contessa, it has the marks of a large felt tip pen, the large blobs where the pen stays on paper then the drift as the tip dries towards the ends of certain strokes.

            To be fair, McDoom is practically blind, to be doubly fair, it is rare these days to find anything written by hand, certainly someone in his position, but I have a couple of problems (not with your views Contessa but with Imperators statement).

            1) There isn’t just one spelling mistake, there’s loads of them James instead of Janes, greetst instead of greatest, you and you family, condolencs instead of condolences, on the death of you Son…
            That little lot is just the beginning.

            2) ‘Mortified’ is NOT the word to use when you’ve f*cked up an apology on someones death. Why is no one checking everything McDoom says or writes before it’s released. Or are they, and we’re just getting the tip of the iceberg?

            Mortify – verb, to affect with gangrene or necrosis
            Mortify

          • old git says:

            I’d like to agree that this isn’t really a story , but I can’t. If you’re writing to a bereaved family who have had the worst possible news and you write personally and in longhand, you are making a particular gesture. It says that you have taken the time yourself to express your feelings directly and in person; that you’re not simply adapting the last template and inserting a new name here.

            It’s intended to be received as a deeply personal gesture and when it’s done properly done it has a great effect. The way she speaks of the other letters makes this plain.

            To allow something which will have this effect to leave 10 Downing street in such a sorry state – he misspelled the name and the surname and tried to correct the lad’s name with a scribbled line, for heaven’s sake – says that either he didn’t see anything wrong with it or he didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. He has entirely negated the whole point of sitting down with a pen in the first place.

            Now you might say that a couple of typos don’t indicate that the whole thing is coming apart, but someone had the responsiblity of checking this and didn’t and failed miserably as a result. Doesn’t matter who.

            As so often with this administration, it’s not the PR damage, it’s the actual damage they should be thinking about.

            How do you get an effect where the lines are weaker at the middle?
            As in the signature and elsewhere.

            I’ve not had my hands on a fountain pen for a long time, I don’t think I’ve ever used one with a flat nib that might do the above, but don’t they too blob when you stop moving, and get weak at the end of strokes?

          • D L George says:

            To 1800 Cunliffe-Arsely on fountain Pens v felt tip

            Hello.

            Fountain pens tend to leave curved strokes, ie, the angle of the pen on paper leaves a sharp edged strip of different widths as the angle of the pen to paper changes over the strokes. If a fountain pen looses touch with the paper you tend to get a thin line than a slight scrape as the centre of the pen (the ink line) looses touch with the paper.

            You also get felt tip pens with flat tips too, which also give you curved angles. The difference is in the sharpness of the edges, a fountain pen tends to be super sharp unless you’re writing on extremely soft paper. All the edges of Browns letter are soft, the kind you will get from a large felt tip.

            To put this baby to rest though, BBC news showed video of Brown writing tonight, He really does use a large felt tip pen. :)

        Isn’t it ironic that the woman he wrote to was Jacqui Janes and he referred to her son’s surname as “James”.

        When he made his photo op, Ooops sorry, message of condolence about the former Big Brother contestant, he referred to her as “Jane” Goody.

        I hand wrote a letter of condolence recently and when I made a mistake I tore it up and started again. Doesn’t El Gordo realise that people may keep such documents and show them to friends? Does he ever think of the consequences of his actions?

        If we criticise this disastrous, bumbling, hubristic, autistic man for his many failings it is only fair to give him a bit of credit when he tries to do something right even if (inevitably) he fucks it up. A handwritten note of condolence is more respectful than a typed letter that any flunkey could have churned out. The big mistake was that none of his huge Downing Street secretariat checked it over before sending it – so it comes back to bite him on the arse as usual.

        • 551

          Perhaps the Downing street secretariat hate him so much now that they won’#t help him and enjoy watching him screw everything up?

        Beano says:

        Letters of condolence should be hand written and thoroughly checked for mistakes as grieving people will take errors very personally. Such letters should be heartfelt and genuine. What we have to ask is who Brown is really sorry for, the letter’s recipient or himself? If it is the former then he should stop scrimping on vital equipment for our troops whilst dumping them in politically motivated conflicts.

        When I was a kid & learning to write, my parents insisted that I write thank you letters for presents I received for Christmas & my birthday. Each letter was carefully vetted by my parents before posting & any mispellings or bits crossed out required a rewrite. As I got older, I started checking my own spelling – in a dictionary as this was before the arrival of Word & Spellchecker – and if I crossed out anything, I started again so that the first letter I showed my parents was OK & ready to go. I still write thank you letters by hand & I still check my spelling & writing before I post them – it’s not exactly rocket science is it? Surely even a PM could manage this?

          Sod bowing. All politicians should kneel throughout the ceremony, includng the march past of the veterans. And when they approach the Cenotaph it should be on their bellies begging for forgiveness.

          That’s the least we should expect of the scumbags who so happily send young men and women to war and then treat te survivors so shoddily.

            Watching Brown at The Cenotaph yesterday,am I the only one who thought it was wrong for him to be anywhere near a memorial to those he has murdered?

            I remember when Norman Schwarzkopf led the Gulf War – he talked about using massive firepower for Operation Desert Storm – and he gave the impression that EVERY one of his allied soldiers blood was sacred to him.

            He succeeded because he used HUGE firepower.

            Brown,as Chancellor,stripped the UK defence budget and then signed up to the despatch of OUR sacred men and women to Afghanistan,without giving them the tools to do the job.

            That is surely a criminal offence and for this he must be prosecuted.

          • Inspector Cyril Blake says:

            For a long time we had no standing army as such and were singular amongst European nations for that. The reaction to the military government of Cromwell’s Protectorate ensured that a standing army, were we to have one, would be far removed from power, although the military’s co-operation was necessary later during the Glorious Revolution. The Monarch and the nobility raised and paid for their own regiments until well into the 19th Century.

            The Royal Navy was established from the start as a “Royal” service and paid for by such, there were no lords or dukes paying for ships out of their own purse, the Navy was always directly under the control of the monarch. The Royal Air Force emerged out of the Royal Flying Corps, a branch of the Army, and being a 20th Century institution, does not have the historical “baggage” of earlier times.

      Written in 2007 by the unashamedly ambitious and nauseating Ryan Shorthouse:

      Life as a Tory parliamentary intern is a sham. While it may be fun to sneak a glass of champagne after lunch or praise Ann Widdecombe’s new dress each day as she barges down the corridors of Portcullis House, we Tory parliamentary staff are living a lie: We get paid minimum wage for stuffing envelopes, while our parents fund the fabulous Oxford leather shoes and classic fit Polo shirts, while we struggle to afford a bus pass.

      Am I really bitter that I don’t have a city starting salary? Slightly. But we young Tories are more bothered about status than money. Money, in excess, is ugly. Being a businessman is hardly appealing. Far better to be a lawyer or an academic. Even a GP. These are the respected in society.

      The children of Thatcher are impressed by how much can be achieved rather than by the depth of a bank account. Thankfully, we have the support base to do that. At mum’s annual Christmas Eve bash, it’s always a delight to boast about what university you’ve attended. Oxford, Cambridge, Warwick, Bristol, yah, yah, yah and all the wondrous charity work you’ve done and exotic countries you’ve visited. Working for an MP is just another to add to the list.

      The demand for a job in the epicentre of power is extremely high, so high that ambitious high-flyers are willing to work for only pocket money. Many see a job in the offices next to Big Ben as a passport to success; these MPs can pull strings, can’t they?

      Working for the Tories is hard work. Little time is had for piss-ups on the roof terrace. Especially when it takes hours to explain to the Rt Hon Gentleman how to text his wife. Or when one has to send dozens of apologies to hopeful recipients of a visit to see David Cameron, politely adding that the Rt Hon Twit was a little drunk when he made the promise.

      There is also the pleasant task of dealing with constituents who call in to outline their proposals for solving pressing issues such as the prevalence of spitting in football matches. “Listen, tell your boss to have a quick word in Tessa Jowell’s ear about my plan.” Politely I reply that the message will be passed on and if anything comes of it, we’ll send a letter. Then there is one very odd fellow who rings every Wednesday claiming we owe him money, for him I have less patience.

      Two months in, we begin to appreciate the lure of the city jobs we once eschewed. The fact that we work as hard as accountants but get a fraction of their pay makes us wonder whether it’s all worth it. Maybe a transfer to PriceWaterhouseCoopers is not such a bad idea after all. But, despite being personally impoverished, I still work for the Conservatives, the party of the upper middle-classes. Slightly paradoxical. But as my dad keeps pointing out, when I’m an old Tory, I’ll remember why I worked for them.

            The answer to that question is NOT don’t vote.

            After last Wednesday’s treasonous betrayal of the British public by the conservatives, the answer is NOT vote conservative.

            So tell me, WHAT is YOUR answer to that question? For IF we are unfortunate enough to have a labour, or conservative government after the next election, our Sovereignty will finally be completely lost.

            IF you think our sovereignty is NOT important, then why the fuck did millions die to protect it over the last century?

            OUR Sovereignty, from which ALL our freedoms are secured, is the single number one important issue facing all of us, for it is that from which all else flows. It is the very foundation of this once free and sovereign nation upon which our constitution, bill of rights and our laws spring forth.

            SO in reply, IF that question is above YOUR head, then YOU ARE EITHER A TRAITOR OR AN IMBECILIC FUCKWIT!

            It is NOT MY fault that the tories have accepted labour’s position on the EU, It is not my fault that they have caved in and betrayed ALL of us.

            It is labour’s original betrayal, and the tories acceptance and endorsement of that betrayal that causes UKIP to BE the ONLY answer!

    Now is the time for Brown to be forced out says:

    This nonentity simply stumbles from one mistake to another,day by day,week by week and we cannot have another 6 months of this.

    When you read the letter to Mrs Janes,it is not a surprise – this comes from a man who has ruined this country and taken it to the edge of the abyss and so anything he does should not be a surprise.

    Thta letter could have been written by a 6 year – no, that is not correct – it could NOT have been written by a 6 year old,perhaps a 5 year old,NOT the leader of a country,for goodness sake!

    He cannot get anything right – he must be forced out of office NOW.

      Its a scrawl. No wonder exams are dumbed down it truly is amazing that the PM would allow such a letter to even be posted. He has no sense of right or wrong that must be clear for all to see. I appreciate presentation may not be the most important thing here and that content is everything but surely this speaks volumes for a man that is fast running out of time and excuses. I do not respect you Mr PM at all but respectfully I ask you to go and go now.

      Bit harsh on the 6 year olds who would have sincerely meant it and struggled to write the letter. It’s not the bad writing which is the insult: it’s sending men to their deaths with less than the best armour and equipment that money can buy, on account of having spent it all on bankers, then expecting a soppy note to be of any comfort.

      “The Chinooks weren’t equipped with secure radios. On the one hand this was a good thing because we didn’t get distracted by unnecessary airwave twitter, but in other respects it was bad because it meant we didn’t know what was going on and relied on the Apaches to relay information to us”

      But you miss the point. Writing a letter in those circumstances is a sensitive matter -it should be checked very carefully before sending, or typos will actually create the opposite impression to what is intended,as has happened in this case.

      Grammar and other spelling mistakes could be forgiven but not knowing the name is unforgivable. Why bother at all if you cannot get that once critical bit right?

      That the wording was not checked and the letter was clearly a rush job speaks volumes for how the Government view this task -another job to be fitted in around more important work.

      The problem was easily avoidable but nobody bothered to check. Die for your country and they cannot even get your name right.

        You must really try hard to understand what a bully Gordon Brown is.

        He has his attack dogs – he believes he is always right – he actually believes he is the best for Britain – he is the personification of the word ‘bully’

        Everyone (with very few exceptions (Mandy?)) surrounding him is frightened of him – his thoughts – his actions – everything! That’s why some of the more intelligent, brave and independent will not work for him – who really wants to be Communications Director for a ‘psycho-flawed’ PM about to lose his job in 6 months?

        There is not a Cabinet member that is not physically afraid of GB.

        There is not anybody that will ‘check’ GB’s letters and tell him he’s got it wrong – so do it again – he can’t be wrong – ‘I’ve done it now – therefore it’s right’

        The 10 p tax – my decision – it’s therefore right!

        ‘Worldwide Transaction Tax’ – first the Treasury is against it – then GB says it should happen – GB leaves Darling to explain – total embarrassment for him (and the UK)!

        The man is a bully

        BUT – the worrying element of this is why does he needs to bully?

        He bullies because he is otherwise INADEQUATE – and only by bullying does he get his way!B/b>

          Re Mandy’s position: You have to understand the makeup of children’s gangs. At the top is a bully who got there by violence. Surrounding him will be a small coterie of loyal, but dim, thugs. Below them the cowed “soldiers”. But usually hovering in the background there’s “the brains”. Brainy realised long ago that he’d never get near the top through violence but recognised that the thickies can be manipulated and there is a machiavellian route to power that does not require violence. That’s Mandy.

      First I’d heard of these hand-written letters was when he proclaimed it himself. Don’t remember any of the relatives thanking Brown for a personal hand-written letter prior to thiat. Followed very shortly afterwards by somebody upset ‘cos he couldn’t even take the time to be sure and spell the dead person’s name right.

      If I were cynical I would suggest that after being so ‘advised’ he sat down some afternoon last week and dashed off a shedload of letters to the relatives of the 200 or so fatalities so far – or at least since his coup – for the express purpose of proclaiming that he had sent letters to every one of those killed. The inference we were supposed to take being that he’d been doing it for years on the q.t. (nice man, doesn’t like to blow his own trumpet).

      I think that as usual with Brown the facts and the impression he’s attempting to give by his selective repoorting of the facts will be wildly divergent.

      We all make mistakes – but to write such a letter to a bereaved mother whose son has died as a direct result of HIS policy is appalling.

      Mrs Janes will no doubt keep the letter from The Duke Of Edinburgh for many years to come – but Brown’s letter? It must be the same as arriving home and discovering you have trodden in some dog excrement.

    Channe4 reports… An overwhelming 84 per cent of the UK population believe British troops are currently losing the war in Afghanistan and well over 50% believe British Troops should be withdrawn immediately.

    The Government claim that the war is supported by the majority of the UK population is a lie typically proffered by people such as Alan Johnson, the Home Secretary who seeks to bluster, bullshit and stifle any argument that does not suit his factually flawed party line.

    The mystery of why they haven’t dumped Brown yet is solved when one realises the simple truth that Nu Labour and their remaining band of hangers-on and fellow travellers simply cannot see the vile reality they alone have created. They have not even got as far as denial – that would be progress – they are suffering from an incredible blind-spot created by their ideological delusions.

    Oh, I forgot, of course, that they would have been compelled to call an early election if they dumped Brown.

    I just cannot see how they can really face the electorate in May with Brown still at the helm. Can’t help but wonder whether Meddlesome’s strategy is to run a leadership contest in early spring and merge it into the subsequent election campaign in an attempt to keep their new leader in the limelight for an extended period and benefit from novelty value and a step-up in the polls that might be expected just from the sheer relief of having Brown out of his unelected office.

        There’s a historical precedent here and its not as far fetched as you think..
        “In the eighteenth century, Britain had a huge trade deficit with Qing Dynasty China and so in 1773, the Company created a British monopoly on opium buying in Bengal. As opium trade was illegal in China, Company ships could not carry opium to China. So the opium produced in Bengal was sold in Calcutta on condition that it be sent to China”

        200 years we were skint and concerned about the growing status of China, (sound familiar?) so we cornered the Opium market and flooded into China, the biggest market for Opium, we got rich off Chinese dough, and China’s power collapsed being riddled with junkies. Could history be repeating here, and our presence in The Afghan is to capture the supply of our secret weapon against China…. “Dr O.”

      Finally I was able to disemminate the ethos for the Afghan conflict from an Army Chief of Staff, as our noble politicians have been unable to explain it.
      If we were to withdraw, apart from the carnage to the local people from Al Qaeda and the Taliban, it would be used as an open training ground (like Libya was) for terrorist warfare. The vacuum would be toxic for the entire world.

      I think yet again it is all about oil. The Caspian sea oil pipeline needs to run through Helmand province. The project is, I believe, currently on hold due to the security situtation. How that is going to change anytime soon is hard to see.

      The invasion of Afghanistan had nothing to do with 9/11, although that was the reason given at the time. But then it’s alweays lies these days Hard to see the sense in that given that the Hijackers were mostly Saudi and did their flight training in the US.

      Now we have the disingenous clap trap that it is about keep UK streets safe from terorrism.

      Our armed forces are being sent to die so that a number of oil comapnies can transport oil from Azerbaijan to India without going through Russia.

      The Taliban/insurgents don’t have to worry about the pile of body bags, the more the merrier from their point of view. The UK government doesn’t care that much either. But as the casualties mount, sooner or later the decision will have to be made to call it a day. The longer it goes on, the harder it will be to have to admit that all the young men and women died in vain; their lives squandered.

      So, in answer to your question “WTF has the Helman Province got that’s worth anything at all?” The answer is, a route for a pipeline. Not to mention the rest of Afghanistan, which is blessed with an abundance of natural resources.

          Yes, but what exactly is the “Job”. How would you define it? I think some jobs have to be accepted as simply not do-able. The border with Pakistan is some 2500 Km of hostile terrain. If every person in the UK and US military were deployed to Afghanistan, do they have enough people to secure such a border and the rest of Afghanistan as well? I think not. Even if they did what would happen if they left, or would they be deployed indefinitely

          The Soviet Union had a huge presence in Afghanistan, 500,000 I think. Even then they did not achieve victory, (what is victory anyway?), nor did they manage to gain control of the whole country.

          The language used with regard to the Afghans taking over their own security is very reminiscent of the final days of the Vietnam war, when they spoke of “Vietnamization” of the war. “Vietnamization” has now been replaced with “Afghanization”. But the outcome of the two wars is going to be inevitably the same. Defeat.

          It maybe outdated but it is not about to be replaced anytime soon. There are many reasons for this, but the main one is that it would put the kibosh on the Petro-dollar cycle, which in turn, would plunge the US federal reserve into meltdown.

          The other reason, do you really think “big oil” would ever permit such a product to replace oil as a resource. While “big oil” has the power to send nations to illegal wars, what chance a replacement product seing the light of day. Bear in mind also, that oil supplies much more than just energy.

          Nothing theroetical or conspriacist about it, it is the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India (TAPI) project, and will terminate somewhere near New Delhi if it goes ahead. This project is already off the ground but on hold because of the problems in Southern Afghanistan. Whether the proposed million barrels a day could be achived by shipping it from the Black Sea I do not know, but I think there are many geo-political reasons for avoiding that, namely, avoiding Russian and anywhere in the region where Russia may be able to trun off the tap.

          Equally, I agree Southern Afghanistan is never going to be stable enough to make the project practical. Doesn’t stop them trying though. Indeed, how it would be possible to secure a thousand mile pipeline in that prt of the world seems a pretty tall order.

          But no, it is not some wild conspiracy theory, it is the reason we are in Afghanistan. All the other reasons so far presented have been show to be complete nosense.

      In remembrance says:

      In previous years the Duke of Edinburgh took the salute at the Victoria Monument at top of The Mall (representing HM Queen )as the veterans” marched past Bearing in mind that he is 88 that is some sense of duty(How many other 88 year olds would stand for over an hour some years in rain and freezing weather to do so ?) Yesterday his place was taken by HRH THe Duke of York(who saw service in The Falklands War) andwho will continue to deputise for HM Queen in future years in this regard until his place is taken by the Princes William or Harry.

      Politicians have NEVER taken the salute and even allowing for Brown’s “faux-pas”yesterday and his apparent lack of empathy for our armed sevices the fact that they withdrew back into the Foreign Office( hat is because it is deemed that once the “Official Act of Remembrance” is concluded that the “ordinary people” carry out their own act of commemoration and that Whitehall is given over to them for this purpose without any “official” party overseeing the march past of veterans. This has always been the case.

    Well, there is little wonder why Brown goes nowhere near Wootton Bassett.

    Firstly, he would be booed as he was in Arromanches.

    Secondly, he could well be attacked.

    Thirdly,he is so utterly disfunctional,lacking any ability for social interaction,that he would be unable to talk to any relatives.

    Oh well,he’s only the Prime Minister – it’s not as if there is anyone else to choose from among 60 million other citizens.

      What happened about the plans to award Wooton Bassett the “Royal ” prefix for their continued acts of reverence when the funeral corteges pass through the village ?. I would have thought that yesterday would have been the right moment or is Brown refusing to recommend to HM The Queen that this be done as it would highlight the fact that neither HE nor Blair or any other Cabinet Minsier has actually got off thie arses and stood on the tarmac to receive the repatriated bodies of our soldiers killed in battle I would have thought that considereing Brown’s “great hero” Obama has done so would have been enough incentive(if shame isn’t sufficient) for Brown(Man of Courage) to do so.

        Omaha was able to show due respect for US military casualties because he was not the President who engineered a whole series of lies and misinformation to get his very own Iraq war and was therefore not looking to conceal the consequences of his actions. Unlike Blair/Brown.

        Omaha represents change from the Bush idiocy. This is why Omaha continually shuns Brown because Blair/Brown are the same shower of imbeciles as Bush. They’re the idiots whose reckless economic and foreign policy practically ban*r*pt the US and UK and got us involved in a pointless war in Iraq.

        That is why the Labour apologists try and conflate Bush with the Tories – use the historic support the Tories have for the Republicans to try and distract folk from the fact that it was the incumbent Labour imbeciles that emulated Bush’s idiot policies.

        Obama doesn’t fall for it one bit. He knows which imbeciles gave Bush the fig-leaf of international credibility for his idiot economic and foreign policies. It was the imbecile government of the British Labour party.

    The problem with Brown’s letter is that, it hasn’t been written by hand and seems to be more likely written by a claw belonging to somebody Reptilian. The problem is he is unused to holding a subtle human instrument such as a pen. My advice to Brown is try clipping your fugking claws now and again sunshine, you green piece of snot!

            It’s about the fact the the Prime Minister of this country should be expected to be able to write a half-coherent letter to communicate his feelings to a bereaved mother. He cannot, as the letter he wrote is breathtaking in it’s disgraceful compilation.

            How many lives does Brown get before they run out and the country does the right thing and forces him out in protest?

            I am staggered that he continues in office and is not simply dragged out.

          • Master Baiter says:

            Brown’s letter is not disrespectful, it is heartfelt and handwritten by a near blind man who uses a thick felt tip pen to write because of that. The ‘newspaper’ concerned knows that well enough.

            Before making accusations about Brown’s attitude to the casualties of war look in to the Falklands action ‘victory’ parade. It will reveal that wounded servicemen or women such as those who lost limbs or with facial injuries were excluded for presentational reasons.

    Porky Pies MP says:

    I have no respect for Gordon Brown as my previous submissions would show. However, in this instance I think he is being most unfairly maligned. What does it matter if his handwriting is not good etc, he obviously has severe visual problems – and even because of that there are foul people making it out to be his fault. The mother of this soldier should be grateful that any PM would personally handwrite a letter to express their condolences, the Queen for instance would only sign a printed letter!

    Of course its mostly down to that arse-wiping rag of a newspaper the Sun. This is Murdoch’s prime purveyor of his personal repellent views and only taken notice of by chavs, uneducated oafs and those so easily conned.

    And to all you paragons of virtue who are having a go at Brown in relation to this letter and yet so often post your own bad spelling and worthless trite comments on this website, I’d just love to see what your handwriting is like.

    If I was Brown I would do what most other heads of state do – have a letter constructed by a dogsbody and just sign it without even bothering to look.

      I tend to agree with you on the letter thing and I really can’t make my mind up about Brown. He may genuinely be a much mis-understood and basically decent man who has just been promoted above his abilities I genuinely think that he does try his best over something that he finds very difficult to empathise with i.e.emotions(that may or may not be because he has Asperger tendencies I’m not a doctor so I don’t know) BUT the problem now is that anything that Brown does is scorned,ridiculed and openly laughed at. He he is no longer respected and THAT is fateful for anyone occupying the Office of Prime Minister whoever they are or whatever their policies

            John Major was lampooned heavily for being not inconsiderably dull and grey, hence the grey Y fronts outside the trousers. There was nothing ribald in the lampooning since his nauseatingly famous adulterous episode was ‘revealed’ by the PR of the subject of his attentions in the futile attempt to launch a career in pulp fiction only after the Conservitudes were thrown in the electoral dustbin.

        Brown is unable to write a letter to the Mother of a dead soldier to convey how he sympathises with her and her family. In this letter to the Mother of the dead soldier Brown got the personal information of the family incorrect, also his grammar is poor in the letter.
        Knowing he has an eyesight and grammar problem his secretary should have type this letter for him, that would have avoided this very sad situation for the family of the soldier and a very humiliating exposure of Brown’s personal problems, we are talking here about the Prime Minister of Great Britain.

      That letter and his lack of respect on Sunday explains all. He is way out of his depth. Remember Obama beach!!
      Tony Blair was a clever politition, a dishonest one maybe. Brown is just not up to this job He should resign.
      The UK is now the laughing stock of europe. A useless PM with a incompetent team (if you can call it a team) of ministers.

      The fact that he seems unable to have any empathy at all with the victims of his policy of vanity, is a character flaw thats impacting on every single aspect of the job he’s unable to do correctly.
      How can he truly understand the “sacrifices” of others when he cannot understand the event at an emotional level?

      Lets face facts, he is totally unsuited for any position of authority because of his lack of feeling and inability to actually connect with anyone other than himself.

      His hand writing to me is indicative of a lazy, unconcerned person who on the one hand wants appreciation but cant stand to put any time into developing it.

      When confronted about the lack of resources, browns response was to say he had “done his best”.

In my younger days I was on the Foreign Exchange Desk of a major bank.These were the days BEFORE computers(yes I am that ancient) and the manuals on the Acts numbered to almost 5 plus volumes covering various countries and amounts that you could send payments to and receive payments from Bloody nightmare.The monthly return and reconciliation to Head Office for the Bank of England was horrendous and often we were still there at 10pm or later(unpaid incidentally). No joke in the 1973/4 power cuts although I remember one of my colleagues set fire to his till when he accidently knocked over the candle. Thinking quickly he threw his cup of tea that he had been about to drink over the contents of his cash till Luckily we only lost one dollar note which was totally unsalvagable although we were both carpetted(me for not warning him to not put the candle on his “till spike”(This was also before Health & safety- and was a big metal spike on a wooden base on which you skewered your till receipts if you also didn’t impale yourself in the process too)by the Manager the next day for reckless use of a candle !! In best “Capt Mainwaring” mode he actually said “You stupid boy ! You could have burnt down the Bank and how would I explain THAT to Head Office ?” Little did he know that 30 odd years later the Bank would have a bit more to worry about These days you wouldn’t be allowed to remain open in a power cut although we both had our trusty “police whistle” to blow in an emergency plus the standard issue “police truncheon”!!!!!!!!!!

    Let’s look at this again. That is not his handwriting – that is not anyone’s handwriting. That is someone struggling to *replace* what their handwriting has become, with a legible fall-back version. In the desperate, clipped, painfully scrawled letters, I think we honestly can see a man who is desperately ill, and utterly unwilling to confont it.

    He is a fucking arsehole, and no doubt owes his career to his soviet handlers, but he is also, clearly, a very ill man – physically and mentally. This cannot go on. FFS, it is obvious. Nothing he does is right. Nothing.

        So Jack Jones was being paid by both the KGB and the CIA? Smart cookie.

        nah. I’ve been asking for a decade now HOW and WHY Brown advanced though the labour ranks with no apparant ability, friends, charisma or political skill. Every year these questions became more and more deserving of answers. Now more than ever, we need the media – the remaining free media, if there is such a thing – to ask these questions. How did this happen? A no-talent gobshite from the arse-end of the country is propelled at such speed and with such momemtum that he becomes the *only* candidate for leader? No opposition? Why? A man of Churchill’s calibre had to fight every inch of the way, constantly politicing, dealing. Brown – a man without talent – hasn’t a friend in the world. HOW did he get where he is?

        When you learn that the two men most responsible for getting him his one and only constituency seat – Jack Jones and Alex Kitson – were paid by the KGB, I think you have to look at this in a new light.

          brown is one and blair another. miliband is also CIA.
          the jack jones reference is correct but then the CIA wouldn’t have wanted their fingerprints to be on the placemen so getting the KGB to do their legwork would have given the CIA a good chuckle.
          brown and miliband and other members of the new labour CIA project were taught and have lived for extensive periods of time in the United States.

          some may say that this post is a load of bollocks but then they should name one single thing that tony blair or gordon brown have done that did not benefit american interests.
          indeed, everything the new labour CIA project has done foreign policy wise has benefited american interests.
          blair and brown have constantly acted in the interests of america therefore blair and brown are agents of american interests.
          logic innit.

        This whole ‘handwritten letters think has been cooked up over the past fortnight or so to again give the illusion that Brown gives a shit or ‘gets it’. Hastily bang out a few handwritten letters – no time for corrections – leave it a week or two for them to hit the doormat and then proclaim he’s been sending ‘em to give the impression he’s been doing it from Day 1 as opposed to a hastily rigged PR campaign.

      Apparently the spinners believe that this will fool some people into thinking that the government, and Gordon Brown specifically, is popular.

      Well – I’m guessing obviously, but I am always right in my guesses, so let’s treat this as a proven fact; an analysis of these comments, and other in the past half year or so, suggest something a *little* more subtle. They know they cannot fake popularity; I reckon they’re aiming at pushing firstly, better the devil you know, secondly a “grudging respect” – faking people who, against their usual ideology, find themselves forced to accept that Brown: has done a good job, is a decent man, may be weird but is effective. It’s a *classic* astroturf technique. You want people to look like opponents who nonetheless praise your candidate. In this way, onlookers can be persuaded that their grudging admiration is more a more genuine and accurate assesment than kneejerk hostility or derision. It’s everywhere today.

      And that demonstrates better than anything that these people do not have a clue. Look at me, just some nutter on the internet, but even I could run this better. Firstly, you do *not* want to be spotted. Once youa re spotted your efforts count AGAINST you. Second, you do *not* want to run your campaign in such a way that it’s very instantiation is clearly artificial – build up to it, pricks. Establish characters. Don’t just leap in, day one, with the same lines all over. What are you muppets, fucking ten or something? Did you tell the comms wonks that you knew social media and blogs, you could play the game? Wankers. People like me *invented* this bloody world you prannets, and you DO.NOT.GET.IT.

            Impeccable logic.

        The same way he apologised for doubling income tax on poor people. ie ‘I deeply regret that you could suspect that I would do something to harm the poor.’

    It’s obvious to everyone (especially the mother) that Brown thought that handwriting letters was beneath him, and he was just doing it as a forced rushed task that he simply didn’t want to do.

    Nobody with any humanity would have sent that letter in the state it was in. His secretary should have simply told him “no, I’m not posting that. You’ll have to re-write it.”

    It’d be better not to send any letter at all than a letter that was as bad as that one.

    Letters with subject matter like that, addressed to a bereaved relative, you take your time over, you double-check it, you get someone else to double-check it, and you only send it once it’s as good as you can get it. Anything less is the worst kind of insult you can throw at someone in that situation.

    His attitude at the cenotaph was equally inhuman. His facial expression said it all; he was angry at having to go out when it was chilly and thought it was beneath him.

          I’d describe Hitler as fucking evil; the fact that his brain might have been wired from birth to be the way he was doesn’t mean I’d simply describe him as mentally disabled and let him get away with it.

          This is where the insanity defence should not be used; ie say someone commits a hideous crime simply because they enjoyed doing it, they are by definition insane, because no normal person would do such a thing, but you wouldn’t want them to just take some pills to chill them out and let them go free; you’d want them put away for life as a punishment and to stop them from doing the same thing again.

          Brown is responsible for what he does; he’s not so mental that he’s not aware of the damage he does; he knows what damage he does, everyone tells him what damage he does, it’s simply that he doesn’t care, and therein lies the problem of sociopaths; they know what they do is morally wrong, it’s just that it doesn’t bother them because they think that the universe belongs to them.

          I don’t see it as an “illness”, I see it as a character trait, and he is responsible.

          Some people are just born this way; it’s how they are; there’s nothing you can do to change it, it’s as-if it’s hard-wired into their brain at birth, you just have to try and keep them as far away from damaging other people as you can.

          Most courts would reach the same conclusion; some people are mentally ill and not responsible for what they do, other people are just plain evil and are completely responsible for what they do.

      I always thought that Mr Brown was a ‘competent’ Prime Minister. However I have recently recognised that in fact he is probably the best Prime Minister ever!

      After all he has saved the world from Financial meltdown and done it with a chirpy, compassionate attitude. He has put the UK on a sound financial footing and his plan to create employment and increase frontline services while not increasing taxes is nothing short of genius.

      To cap it all he pulled off a political masterstroke by signing the Lisbon Treaty with the heartfelt backing of the majority of the population.

        But ‘The Sun’ revealing this hand-written letter has shown me how wrong I really was.

        I now realise the economy is not utterly arse-fucked and that we were not sold a complete pack of lies to pursue a war in Iraq. I further realise that Gordon Brown did not double income tax on the poorest nor did he renege on a Lisbon referendum or indeed, long before that, a referendum on PR.

    This Labour government (and party) have not the slightest interest in fighting a war, or supporting those that are sent by them to fight. They have not the slightest interest in effectively running the country previously known as The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Apart from claiming enormous amounts of expenses, they are not interested in any type of endeavour concerning the welfare of the Queen’s Subjects ( henceforth to be known as citizens of the European Union).

    Their only true and real interest is in keeping any Conservative (or conservative – small c) party out of power, and destroying any chance that the people have of any kind of independent life of their own. To this end, they will do ANYTHING, including destroying the Country and its peoples, to ensure that success for and by the people themselves is impossible.

    Only the people, even at this late stage, can do anything about it. It will be hard, and many will suffer until democracy is restored, but, as has been said, and still true today:

    Seems to me someone stitched Brown up.Defies belief that Gordo scrawled that disgrace of a note and just popped it in the post unchecked by anyone else.Anyone who saw that and at least didn’t suggest to someone in a position to advise Brown that it was best not sent out in that form needs their arse kicked…or maybe someone did.Nest of fucking Vipers possibly playing games with a bereaved woman for their own ends.Sadly not beyond belief.

    I’m getting worried. If most of the obscene and illiterate comments on this board that condemn Brown and his government (not complaining about that just the poorly educated way they are delivered) are from Tory supporters it doesn’t bode well for the future. On the other hand I think many are probably from Labour supporters pretending to be outraged Tories in order to denigrate the intelligence of them.

      The use of obscenities is indicative of strong emotion not lack of intelligence.

      The strong emotions comes from people having the power to control their own destiny removed from them, by a corrupt and greedy political class who blatantly abuse their power for their own selfish ends.

    Cast Iron Chocolate Dave says:

    I forget where I just read it (the short term memory isn’t what it was) but the valid point made was, that whereas Remembrance Sunday used to commemorate those fallen in defence of Liberty and Democracy,

    [Of course those old enough will remember in those days the Soshalists could hardly be bothered to turn up and if they did, like Michael Foot they'd shuffle in begrudgingly in an old donkey jacket, and of course the BBC never wore poppies 'cause that would 'glorify war my darlings']

    whereas now we have all fake Beeb sincerity to support our noble Soshalist wars of agresssion against the dark forces of evil (aka the fuzzie wuzzies), and naturally all the BBC apparatchiks wear poppies from June onwards to show support for wars as directed by McDoom, following on from Bliar’s war to start all wars.

    One wonders if McDoom’s KGB controllers ever bothered to tell him that the Soviet Union did not prevail in Afghanistan or perhaps he is still just on some obsolete autopilot from the Seventies. Any road up, the Soshalists have the BBC behind them so what hope, the rest of us, even Dave hasn’t given us a CI guarantee to do owt about it.

      Worse than not being elected at all. To win by deceit and fraud.

    Dear Sarah Broon

    I am writing this letter to you on hearing the excellent news that your husband had a massive STROKE and finally died after two weeks of suffering in which the NHS failed to administer any drugs that would ease the pain.

    Your husband died after forcing himself upon the country and finally brining it to its knees. His death is a fitting tribute to the fucking mess he leave behind.

    Now you can go & remarry & hopefully get a decent shag.

    Kind Regards

    Can your contacts get any verification on the Nu Lab putting extra trolls on the public tit story?. That would be very damaging to Brown and his scum if it got a lot of publicity. What about an FOI to find out who is working for ZaNu?.

      Porky Pies MP says:

      The problem is that your observation could just as easily apply to the Conservatives. They could also be putting ‘trolls’ as you call them on message boards (although I hope they are not as foul-mouthed as some on this message board).

      I have stated my opposition to Brown many times in the past but I detest the sort of reporting done by Murdoch’s personal tampon better known as the Sun. It hasn’t learned anything since its disgusting and lying reports at Hillsborough many year’s ago. That doesn’t make me a Labour troll – just somebody who can see the real motives of a foul ‘newspaper’ and indeed it has already backfired on them.

Obviously these emotions are not shared by most on these pages but then nobody really takes notice of this message board except ourselves who contribute.

          • tat says:

            how strange: when the sun used to support the new labour war party, labour trolls like you were rimming murdoch’s arsehole and now the sun does not support brown it has become murdoch’s “personal anal tampon” as you so oddly put it.

    The person that died was her son, she loved him dearly and would have stood in the way of the danger he confronted. He just died for his country and for you and me. Of course being a labour total absolute scumbag fuckwit you would not and never ever will understand that sacrifice.

    Mc Shit and intelligence are alien beings,the man from Kircoddy is a con merchant and he virtually proves it daily.
    Academic my arse,which fucking fool couldn,t write a dissertation for a PHd based on socialism and the labour party in Jockland 1918 to 1929.
    My uni days were spent on engineering and it was nose to the grindstone,whilst we used to watch the political/social/economics lot arseing about for fun with all sorts of left wing/marxists/cnd wannabee,s setting up commitees for this that and the other.
    We used to have a standing joke amongst the engineering lot,that went when this other lot graduate the degrees are on the perforated shithouse paper and you just ripped one off as you left.
    Just to clarify one point above the economics I refer to was usually touching on some economics ie:- keynsian but was not in any sense pure economics.
    So when you see many of these politicians as graduating in politics and economics be wary of just what the economics means.
    Mr Gorgon has never held a real job in his life and it shows,he cant relate to real people and their everyday struggles,but then he has been fed a continuous diet of marxist doctrine which has poisioned his mind against any alternative thinking.
    Marxist theory was simple ie:- to achieve state control you must break the cement that binds people together,this cement was family,church and culture once you break these you can impose a state monopoly on people.
    I have deliberately simplified this but if requested can go into it more in depth.
    People like McDoom and his ilk when the USSR collapsed were left in limbo,their world had collapsed and they were adrift,but they saw another utopian society on the horizon eg: the EUSSR this would replace their cherished ambitions of socialist rule across the world.
    Now we have 27 once independent countries who are completely subservient to their marxist masters,what a disgrace this is and I say to all of them how can you do this to your peoples,
    1) give up your rights of your people to determine your own future.
    2) now be forced to obey every EUSSR dictat.
    In conclusion of my rant on these pages do you good people not realise that when you accept that multiculturism is the way forward for this world that you are deluded,look around you do we have a settled community at peace with itself no we do not and are you to blame no you are not,blame it on these marxist/leninist/trotskyist/stalinist/dictators who were absolute arseholes as history has proved.
    Why the hell this current crop of Liebour misfits are pursuing this line is beyond me as they are now facing oblivion,and it is my fervant hope that this party is wiped out of british politics forever.
    I feel so pissed off with this Liebour scum that I feel that they should all die tomorrow and god forgive me for saying that.

    Is it possible to check on the stories of Labour Trolls being paid by downing street to hit this, the Mail and other sites?

    Seems weird that on a day when the son of the Manse is in the firing line, we get posters like ‘nodding donkey’ and ‘porky pies mp’, both of which widely condemn all posters on the site while praising Liebour. We’ve also had posters using exact liebour phrasology, aka ‘mortified at comments’.

    If the reports are true, this isn’t a good sign.
