[quote]Gordon Brown was elected as an MP at the last election, then made Chancellor by Tony Blair.[/quote]

I'm not even a big follower of politics and know that Gordon Brown had been chancellor since 1997. The last election was in 2005. Go figure.

[quote]He was not voted by anyone to be Prime Minister, either in his party or by the general public.[/quote]

Give me one single PM that's been voted in democratically. Can you? As for the party, well, did anyone challenge him for the position? As a party they decided Brown was the man to take them forward, and as a nation we chose that party to lead us. I think the British system has always been this way so cannot see the problem.

Oh, and as for GB ever saying sorry:

Pretty easy to find on google and he's apologised over a few things. Now, I'm not saying he's the best thing since sliced bread but at least get your facts together if you're going to imply stuff about him/anyone.

He certainly doesn't speak for this hard working, decent, tax payer.

We love Jezza, we do. We love Jezza, we do - oh Jezza we love you.

The public have never elected a PM, we've always elected parties. We've been through all this before.

If you vote in a party purely based on the charisma of it's leader at the time then that's your prerogative. One thing is for sure: In the next election you will put an 'x' in a box that corresponds with a 'party' NOT a candidate for PM. I'm willing to wait until the next election for my apology, when you see that I'm correct. In fact, lets have a little wager, eh?

If I'm right you have to do a forfeit: the breaking in of Max_Tranmere. I'll do it if you're right. Fair?

It's a life-changing forfeit, I know, but I feel pretty confident it won't be me knocking on Max's door with a bottle of Eros lube.
