I think that Gordon Brown is simply wrong …Regarding the truth row is a distraction.

Trouble is that he is not very good at hiding when he is not telling the truth. Thus, it is very obvious to everybody when he is being less than truthful and he then starts calimin “he always tells the truth” – and this is what is really treating the public with contempt.

There have been so many instances where he has been far from honest, everybody knows what he is like – he has got himself a reputation.

In fairness, he makes things worse for himself because often he will say one thing and do something else (because he might lose, for political reasons, whatever). Whilst he was probably being onest when he said it and changed his mind this comes across as dishonesty. It is not – it is as bad and hardly the way to treat people.

We’re supposed to be reforming Parliament aren’t we…?

One of the biggest reforms must be that whenever the PM opens his mouth in the Commons, we can trust what he says.

At the moment, the PM tends to give me the impression that he’s either evading the question or telling porkies…

Not least because we all know that having finally cleared the debt incurred during World War II, Labour have put us in massive debt for decades again.

Gordon just seem to be in complete denial about this, because he’s thinking about votes and the Holy Grail of a Labour fourth-term all the time…

People desperately hoped for great change away from inequality, that had been so massively fueled under the Conservative government, when they voted Labour in.
Gordon Brown knows darn well that he, and his predecessor Blair, have betrayed all those who entrused them & with blatant arrogance.
He talks now of petty personal attacks from David Cameron, so as to try shift focus away from the turmoil he’s in!
Britain has become a country of utter disgrace, inequality, corruption, arrogance, & dominated by evil corporate fat-cats & rich individuals, backed by political self servers. It’s just as well there’s going to be a general election, ‘cos Britain is surely going to be bankrupt under Brown & co.

I can’t believe that even Brown would say “the row over who is telling the truth is a massively irrelevant distraction”. Since when has been lying been an irrelevant distraction?
