That picture of the girl with the binoculars is begging to be spoofed: ‘I see no WMD’, etc.

Given that groups like Compass, let alone a declared leadership candidate like John McDonnell, have been tryuing to get that debate going for ages, what makes Clarke and Milburn (cue Laurel and Hardy music?) think they’ve created something new?

Orderly transition? More like ensuing bloodbath.

leon - yes, the site is a horror to load. took me three attempts to sign up. two ‘Gordon Browns’ are already members. I think it may go the same way as the Miliband wiki.

If everyone could make money and/or political progress from bullshit, unemplyment would sure be lower. Maybe that’s their image of 2020…

“2020 vision.” Interesting choice of name. Gordon doesn’t have 2020 vision.

True, but then none of us have 20-20 vision in the UK - that’s the US assessment system, Britain uses a scale of 6, so the correct term would be 6-6 vision.

Doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, mind you!

Jesus wept. The Safety Elephant and Alan “NHS privatisation” Milburn, together…the stupidity is going to pass an event horizon and collapse in on itself, surely?

could not have fisked it better myself. The cry of the has-beens and never-was’s at its best.

All parties have to have them though; they can help in the end by making people realise the people in charge are perhaps a good alternative after all….

or maybe not!
