    Best PM in the last 40 years… when the current PR machine stops spinning Gordon Brown will be considered a contender by all ends of the political spectrum.

    Hmmm… in some ways he was a rubbish PM… didn’t have the smile or the smarm for it… his Exchequering skillz was what the country needed when he was PM though, surely.

    Yes he sold everything and spent everything and more, all in all he was a great success in both of his roles.

    Oxboy – I bet you considered buying a powerband.

    Wait until Dave can’t keep blaming labour… recall when Dave and George themselves said how good Gordo was, time will show just how good he was.

    You forgot to mention that he created the global credit crunch/recession too Oxboy.

    STOP KILLING FOREIGNERS, CAMEROOOOOON,

    What, we’re bombing Cameroon? When did this start? What did they do? Well, apart from that ridiculous corner flag dance, but that was only Roger Millar, so don’t take it out on the whole nation.

    TJ, as much as I can judge having spent some 21 years there it wasn’t a communist state. Totalitarian? Are we talking about the same place? You sure we are?
    A head of the ruling party running the country, formal opposition in existence (as of 1952 IIRC), moral opposition in the form of the catholic Church (given, not as free as elsewhere but nonetheless). Kind of similar to the UK at present, don’t you think?
    In communist there is NO PRIVATE ownership of goods, NO PRIVATE land, NO PRIVATE business. We did have it, not everywhere and not all the time, but we did. Propaganda clearly did its job.

    hairychested – its more about what socialism and communism is. I doubt we disagree on how the country was run.
