leeslover Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Greek economy in meltdown, people being shot in bangkok and PM calls person from Rochdale a name. Which one of these is news? Some people just don;t like being challenged about the deficit . Brown is plainly a bit crackpot, which must be newsworthy? And it sounds like she was doing nothing more than talking about the same issues as a lot of the population, yet he held her in contempt, isn;t that newsworthy?

Given the bully allegations and now this... His character is under question... I kind of don't mind having a bit of a c*** in charge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I do think it's more current and newsworthy than the Mccans saying that the Police have given up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he has to agree with every crackpot he meets? And this is the key issue in an election - whether a person finds another a bigot, a numpty or whatever. He should just take whatever is thrown at him, smile and move on. I've called "customers" worse than bigot myself this morning, luckily I'm not miked up by sky news.

I've called "customers" worse than bigot myself this morning, luckily I'm not miked up by sky news. I met a customer this morning, and said how honoured I was to be in his beautiful country. But then he could probably have my hands cut off if I upset him. Thing is, I've not seen that she said anything that a mainstream Labour voter might not go along with of have concerns over. Worried about education, Eastern European migration, the debt and so on. He didn;t like it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc0000 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 They are playing the whole interview on Sky news... She said nothing bad really... "You can't say anything about all these immigrants. All these people flocking from Eastern Europe. Where are they coming from.". I wouldnt say that is a bigot comment. Its genuine concern for people.

Matt Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Rochdale? Check. Fat old lady? Check. I'll take them odds. It's a non-story in my opinion - she probably is a bigot. He spoke the truth for once. Good on yer Gordon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garcon Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I hope the media outlets don't all concentrate on this all day... it's a bit of a pathetic non-story really, although I suppose it's just another of those little things that show him up for the socially retarded ape he is.
