Gordon Brown 'bigoted woman' comment caught on tape

[Hecktix]

Of course he felt the need to apologise, what he thought was a private conversation has been broadcasted for everyone to hear..

[Hitman]

If you watch their conversation, he was polite and friendly to her. Everyone *******.

Yes, putting on a face and lying... he said it was very nice to meet her, when really he didn't think that at all... I don't know what those curse words are but I'm guessing it's along the lines of 'everyone messes up'.

Like I said, if he thinks its a disaster that one of his supporters asks him questions then maybe he's not the right person for the job.

He was just giving him opinion...he didn't know it was going to be broadcasted on national television...He did apologize in the end so what's the problem?

He's a control freak, he's trying to blame members of staff for setting him up with someone who would ask him difficult questions, and he's not meeting members of the general public because his whole campaign is fake.

He's a terrible representative for the Labour party, this is just further proof of that. Zero charisma and poor oratory skills upfront and anger issues behind the scenes.

I am sure none of them are any different. Lets face it it's human nature. They have to keep a smiling face for the public and I challenge anybody to say that none of the other party leaders would have probably not done the same thing about some members of the public and they all orchestrate meetings I am sure. He got caught - he will pay whatever price is due.

[Misawa]

He didn't feel the need to apologise, else he wouldn't have said it. His advisors forced him to apologise to save face. Politics is a dirty game and they're all liars. Anyone who thinks there is honesty in politics is deluded, as are the people that always rush to defend their party's leader to the last breath as if they are honest people. Regardless of who you support, they all stand for different things with a facade of lies - you just have to choose whose lies you wish to believe.

I have never heard of any other party leader (Including Labour leaders) and recent ex prime ministers face claims of being very arrogant with staff and possibly bullying.

The other leaders do not orchestrate meetings and even if they did, it is completely wrong and gives television viewers the wrong image. You frequently see Cameron & Clegg wander into public spaces and just stand in the middle taking questions from everybody, this can be seen most days on the news as you see them on the election trail. Right from the beginning Brown's campaigning has been faked, when he went to St Pancras to catch a train to Kent there was a bus load of young Labour supporters to clap at him. Ridiculous.

I'm sure if it was Cameron who said something like this there'd be claims of how he is so rich and isn't the same as the rest of us and also how he isn't in touch with the working class lol.

[Misawa]

It's already been proven that Brown has anger issues and lashes out at his staff. He's the biggest moron out of the three.

Oh Jordy of course they do to a certain extent. They are all media savvy You are making them sound like angels - they are politicians fgs. It has always been done and if you think otherwise I am surprised. Thatcher was hardly known to be staff friendly on occasions either but I don't know her and I don't know him so who am I to pass judgment? I don't like Gordon Brown from what I have seen as you well know but they could all have been caught similiar to Clegg telling a member of the public last week he was talking a load of bilge. What's the difference?
