In fact, so low that I think it may result in a kick back at the media and create some sympathy for the Prime Minister.<br /><br />Who in their right mind could believe that Gordon Brown wrote that letter feeling anything other than the deepest sympathy for a grieving mother. <br /><br />I could almost wish there was a God in order that the journalists spinning out this story would get their just and eternal rewards.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00797359279671022904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35177951.post-59520810372417907932009-11-11T08:35:26.967+00:002009-11-11T08:35:26.967+00:00It's not often you will find me agreeing with ...It's not often you will find me agreeing with you, but this time I do 100%. The Sun is a toxic rag that has used the classic "play the man not the ball" approach. It does, however, appear to have backfired as the BBC was reporting yesterday evening that the majority of responses they have received were critical of the (non) story and sympathetic to Brown. Quite an achievement.Longriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139120804208136012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35177951.post-28568006853765502352009-11-10T21:32:26.227+00:002009-11-10T21:32:26.227+00:00Very well said.

As an SNP voter I think you and I could find plenty to fight about but on this one you'll get no argument from this quarter. <br /><br />I fully support anyone who opposes these wars and note that many parents of soldiers killed in these conflicts have been impressive campaigners, Reg Keys in particular springs to mind. <br /><br />But this mother is not an anti-war campaigner. She is a grieving mother and her rage, distress and desire to lash out will be all too familiar to anyone who has experienced the loss of a family member in tragic circumstances. That doesn't mean she shouldn't be listened to but I would have thought common decency would have prevented journalists parading her around in public to sell papers. <br /><br />Then again common decency and The Sun are seldom seen in the same room. <br /><br />There is a lot to criticise Gordon Brown for but the effects of his disability are not one of them. <br /><br />Shameful behaviour.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35177951.post-20213546503775157462009-11-10T21:19:00.183+00:002009-11-10T21:19:00.183+00:00This will be the same Dirty Digger who Blair flew ...This will be the same Dirty Digger who Blair flew around the world to kiss... er show that he was Prime Minister in waiting about a year before the 97 election.<br /><br />Still Rupe always gets what he wants, in this case it'll be a reigned in BBC and the scrapping of OFCOM.Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13574173214924437278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35177951.post-46855171276140922162009-11-10T19:45:41.239+00:002009-11-10T19:45:41.239+00:00Totally agree with you on this one.
