ARTICLE SUMMARY

Ten steps Brown must take to get us on the road to recovery

GORDON BROWN can barely wipe the grin off his face.

LEO MCKINSTRY

16.10.08, 9:51am

With regard to DM64 and his retort to Leo, as an unrepentent Keynsian still inhaling the residual whiff of microeconomics leftl circulating from Blairs Evac from Numero 10, one wonders how Gordon has the bottle to "go global" on advice?

Regrettably, it simply proves conclusively that mixing Fettes "logic" at a Texas Tea Party, whilst accompanying the Hope Saxophonist on Nulab String (and wind) does nobody any good.

GORDON BROWN CAN BARELY WIPE THE GRIN OFF HIS FACE

14.10.08, 4:47pm

What I want to know is why so little is being made now (and at the time) of the fact that this man sold off a load of our gold reserves at rock bottom prices. COME ON TORIES STOP SLEEP WALKING and wipe that grin off his face.

Is Leo McKinstry supposed to be taken seriously, I have seldom read more twaddle than his ten points to improve things.

No wonder he works for the Daily Express at least he's at home amongst other idiots.

The present world wide credit problems have not been created government but by the greed of bankers and other city institutions. These people are not only greedy but extremely stupid for believing that the rediculous bonus systems could go on indefinitely. They are also for the most part old school tie types and Tories to a man.

So lets forget McKinstry and his theories, no serious commentator believes that Britain can or should leave the EU, and leave it to Gordon Brown who is clearly the best man to get us through these difficult times.

10 STEPS BROWN MUST TAKE IF HE IS TO GET US ON ROAD TO RECOVERY!

14.10.08, 1:10pm

Yesterday I read your article and thought 'wow, there's someone else out there with commonsense, other than me!

What a pity we are led by mainly male ego-driven politicians.

Let's face it there's no getting away from it Brown got us in this mess.

BROWN WILL BE EVEN MORE MESSIAH LIKE NOW THAN BEFORE

14.10.08, 2:04am

It seems to me if I had brought down the entire British economy like Chairman Mao has I would be seeking humility and the forgiveness of the thousands of low income voters who wont benefit one jot from the stock market trends as they dont have any spare cash to make any investments. This bak bale-out will only be good for a very small percentage of the voters and of course the fat cats who can afford to lose and to play to win another day. Its very unfortunate that the Chairman is now even more dillusional than before{if thats possible} and will probably manage to convince many thousands that he and he alone is their saviour from a fate worse than death.This is what he learned from the MASTER of deceit BLIAR..He wont listen to your advice as he's now on a path to his own glory that means so much more to him than life itself and the sad thing is that lots of voters will believe he is a genious.You and I know better!!

LEO, YOU MAY AS WELL ASK A HYENA TO BECOME A VEGAN!

You cannot expect Brown to carry out many of your (wise) reccomendations! Perhaps one or two,under intense pressure only to keep his job. But if he can borrow or raise taxes,or flog off more gold or British industry,these are his preferable options.
