Watt a Legend

"Peter, we've spent 10 years working with Gordon and we don't like him. The more the public get to know, the less they will like him too"

Dale has quite the scoop in bagging Peter Watt's book.

The Mail has the serialisation
. Despite being able to see the pound signs glowing in Watt's eyes on Sky a moment ago, he raises some
serious points
:
Mr Brown’s Cabinet ally Douglas Alexander said the PM’s inner circle wanted an early Election partly because even they didn’t like him – and they feared the British public would soon form the same view.

The day Mr Brown called off the 2007 Election, denying he had ever intended to hold one, Labour chiefs had a fleet of limousines circling Parliament Square ready to take Ministers on the campaign trail, and had 1.5million leaflets ready to be posted.

No10 is ‘completely dysfunctional’ under Mr Brown, who runs the country ‘by making it up as he goes along’.

Sulking Mr Brown walked out of a Downing Street dinner party with US politicians because they sat down without his permission.

Ouch.

The most damning part has to be the evidence of just how was the "election that never was" was:
He also reveals the chaos caused when Mr Brown made his U-turn on the Election during a TV interview.

‘As he spoke, the fleet of limousines ordered at No10’s behest was circling Parliament Square.
'They had come . . . to collect Ministers and whisk them off on the campaign trail. They were sent away on a pretext, to spare us the humiliation of anyone spotting them lined up outside our offices.

‘We had already spent £1.2million. Somewhere in a mail depot were hundreds of sacks of personalised letters to voters in marginal seats – 1.5million envelopes waiting to go.’
Smoking stuff.


DALE:
Has the 101.

Shows your average Labour apparatchik up to be self serving above all other considerations. Screw the country and the electorate.

In spite of Brown being the worst, most dysfunctional and destructive PM in history, they all kept quiet about it in order to ride the gravy train as long as possible.
