Brown in America

I think that there is another problem coming up this weekend for you Nick and the Prime minister. This is the sort of economic summit meeting being held in America this week-end. We have to ask have you been a good boy and will be attending, no doubt as part of the usual huge BBC overkill.

Brown has a problem because the Americans have let it be known that Obama will not attending and that he will meet with nobody, so as not to upset anybody. So, we have all the worlds leaders going to a summit to do what exactly, have a nice cup of tea and to buy some nice christmas presents.

Brown as usual will be left looking like the idiot he is, but also all the other summieers will as well. What on earth can be agreed because the person setting the agenda won't be there and is sending two failed politicuians to represent him, I mean Albright, get real.

So, will Brown show the same ineptitude at the summit as he did at the despatch box on wednesday. What hope is there for economic salvation when even Paulson has now completely changed tack with his $700 billion, this is a shambles.
