Prime Minister’s Spokesman Simon Lewis Blunders Again

Gordon’s ongoing quest for a sprinkling of stardust from Obama has hit yet another obstacle.  Firstly he was forced live on Marr to admit that he hadn’t spoken directly to Obama about the Christmas Day bombing attempt and now it seems Simon Lewis, Brown’s error-strewn official spokesman has sparked a serious falling out and public admonishment from the White House.

“A White House source” used an interesting choice of words to describe “a mistake” by Lewis to suggest that a file on the knicker-bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, had been passed to the US sometime “in 2008“. However Lewis has just had to retract his words and stated there was no suggestion that this had ever happened. Alan Johnson has been forced to schedule an emergency statement at 15.30. Sky News’s Joey Jones said he took no pleasure in describing it as “an awful briefing“. Another serious blunder by Brown’s slapdash spokesman, the Lobby have completely lost respect for Brown’s mouthpiece. A lobby hack who would prefer to anonymous say “it was an utter fucking car-crash”.

By the by, the Telegraph broke the story this morning.  Edited by Simon’s brother, Will Lewis…

    Who can believe Downing Street now? Certainly the White House don’t.

    Get rid of this terrible government and this appalling Prime Minister as soon as possible to make Britain credible again.

          To risk our precious lives, we’re chary,
          When danger looms, we’re never there
          But when we meet some helpless woman,
          Or little boys that do no harm

          We run them in, We run them in,

          Yup, all the extra security and liberty removing laws and surveillance in the world won’t make us any safer from intelligence service ‘patsies’ and their fake war on terror.

          When they can get this young man without a passport onto a plane with hazardous flammable material, then the security measures are meaningless.

If they’re gonna take us into Yemen, Somalia, Iran etc just to piss of the Chinese then they can damn well go alone – useless, incompetent, egomananiacal, fundamentalist Chritian, religio – oil hegomonic, crusdaers of the most stupid kind.

Now these soldiers, well, they come from a place called Britain – can you say that with me? Britain – oh, good boy, well done.

          “Cameron has a bloody mountain range to climb, and it’s slippery every step of the way.”

          No he hasn’t. Cameron is bluLabour. New Labour with a blue rinse. Look at the NHS “manifesto” he published yesterday: most of the policies have already been implemented by the Labour government. Why is Cameron trying to claim that New Labour policies are his? Heir to Blair.

          We need a real alternative, not more of the same New Labour policies from President Cameron.

    The key issue is surely why did Lewis say what he said. Was he being dopey and stupid or was he told by someone to say that? Did someone deliberately want to give the public the impression that “British Intelligence” passed on a file about Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to the US authorities when that never happened?

    Brown the Cod father says:

    Look It started snowing in America first and now we have to deal with it, I am going to spend 10billions on new tractors & Mastifs to clear the roads , we want British snow for British workers not this yanky Snow.

    My response to Iceland

    Iceland told me to fuck off you c’nt you are getting nothing, i now claim all Cod is mine, i am the Codmeister, we will set up a cod line in the North, North Sea >Scottish waters< to confiscate all Cod, i am leading the world in cod and will sell cod instead of gilts to raise money to finance the growth that will finance the 10bn tractor purchases that in turn will raise 1bn new money and a million new Green fishing jobs.

    See you spend 10bn now and we can manipulate the employemnt numbers keeping it under 3 million so we can bash those tory toffs.
    Education Education I wish I had had an Education, but my father was a minister at some poxy church and played with the choir boys instead of earning money to send me to school. If only Jack Jones was my dad, he is my hero, a true comrade and better spy than me or that Jordanian bloke who never fooled me as a tripple spy

    Junior used to have a friend when she was in infant school that persistently told outrageous lies about trips to far off places, being friends with famous footballers and having scary adventures on the back of runaway horses.

    He was a serial fantasist and thinking of him now really reminds me of gordon.

    Could not resist temptation says:

    Why should we believe the Prime Minister’s spokesman when we do not believe the Prime Minister?

    Spin ster says:

    Look everyone, a comment that doesn’t suggest the author has tourette’s…(And while we’re on that subject, would people make an effort to curb their language? Over-reliance on obscenities suggests lack of intelligence which isn’t a great reflection on either Guido or readers of this blog)

    Seems Gormless is well aware of the shortcomings in the No 10 Spin Machine, and has recently drafted in the Head of News from Ministry of Justice (his former press officer from the Treasury) to try and restore some order. Shame that Lewis doesn’t seem to be taking much notice…

      Sungei Patani says:

      I quite agree; whilst the repartee on this blog can be quite entertaining it is spoiled by the ignorant (probably educated at a Nulabour comprehensive school) who are not able to string more an three words together without a profanity.

      It is a very sad reflection on the British education system, but not too surprising given the government we have been burdened with for the past thirteen years.

    Who cares what Obama thinks or says? Why do our politicians always want to be seen talking to the US and singing from THEIR hymn sheet?

    We used to be the most powerful nation on earth once….whole continents would tremble at our might….. now we are almost third world in stature and have to constantly ask the US for approval like a neurotic, hormonal, middle aged woman.

    Gordon should ignore Obama and pull our troops out and when the US complains we just tell them to F**K OFF !!

    Yours
    Retired FCO Diplomat.

    Fuck off back to Scotland McMong says:

    Nice to see the Vaseline users at the BBC spin this as a pro McMong story on the 6PM news. Mark Mardell? what a wanker. Where was toenails? Last night he couldn’t wait to get on the TV to slag Cameron off.

    Ooooh! Joey Jones.
    Up there along with Maguire.
    Maguire’s paper reviews are ‘do not miss’ TV.
    You can actually see what an idiot looks like,when trying to appear plausable.
    They learnt this technique from Brown.
    The one with the most experience.

    Gordon Brown says:

    You just can’t get the staff these days.

    But then who in their right mind would want to work for me?

    By the by, the Telegraph broke the story this morning. Edited by Simon’s brother, Will Lewis…

    I’m guessing Will didn’t like the socks and Old Spice gift set that Simon gave him for Chrimbo. That or Mrs Will Lewis took umbrage over Mrs Simon Lewis’s comments about her brandy butter.
