Gordon Brown : a man with no sense of priorities
Gordon Brown has been under pressure, for several days now, to say something about the release of the convicted Libyan bomber, Abdulbaset al-Megrahi.
And rightly so. After all Colonel Gaddaffi has gone public thanking “his friend” Gordon Brown for the release of al Megrahi. And Gaddffi’s son has made it clear that the convicted bomber was always part of Libya’s discussions with Britain on oil and other trade. But to date, nothing from our Prime Minister.
Last night I was listening to the radio five live news (Sunday 2230) and I hear that Downing Street are describing the England Ashes victory as ”exhilarating” and that “Gordon Brown will be writing to the captain Andrew Strauss to congratulate the team”.
Can someone tell me how it can be construed as, in anyway, appropriate to maintain radio silence on the release of Megrahi, yet come out promptly to comment on a game of cricket?

Macavity, Macavity, there’s no-one like Macavity. He’s broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity.

and to finish ….
His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare,
And when you reach the scene of crime–Macavity’s not there!
You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air–
But I tell you once and once again, Macavity’s not there!
Nice one.
