Such is the fame of Gordon for having the courage only to disappear, in the manner of Macavity, when there is trouble about, that a rumour went round yesterday that he would not be doing PMQs.
What with banks collapsing despite Treasury bail-outs, (total risk to each and every taxpayer £900 and rising) and with 25 million bank and National Insurance details available unencrypted to crooks courtesy of the tax office, it looked possible he could go on an “emergency” foreign trip.
However according to the Downing Street website he will show up to be ritually thrashed at PMQs today.
