Brown not fit to govern

Gordon Brown, who just seems to think that he should take over running the country without a democratic general election, has recently given an interview about the sad death of his daughter. Now I do not consider that he has any right to emotionally black mail the electorate with this touchy feely sort of stuff.Many people lose loved ones and he is quoted as saying 'and you have got, I think, to try and do something' (Independent 15th september p.9). Well can he now tell us what he thinks we should do about all the innocent women and children being killed to bring foreign people freedom and democracy. Also what does he think about the families of those military personnel who are dying so that he can give interviews to the media. I am glad that he was able to cradle the body of his daughter in his arms and that she 'was unblemished by the illness she had' well maybe he ought to go and cradle a young baby slaughtered by some of our bombs or bombs transferred from America to Israel and used in the 'war' on Lebanon.What has been most illuminating over the last few days is Blair visting Israel after the murders in Lebanon. He was pictured with the families of the three, yes three, Israeli soldiers who have been captured by their opponents. Why will Blair never appear with the families of our soldiers who have lost their lives fighting for freedom and democracy. Oh, and where exactly are all the injured soldiers. Does anybody know where they are. By now some of you will know that they are being used as guinea pigs for some new drug or other but they are expendable after all. The whole of this labour government are tarnished by the illegal war in Iraq and even now Bush is having to go to congress to get the Geneva convention changed so that the CIA can legally torture people. Is this what we have come to.
