The genius that is John Prescott

Here he is on Twitter: "Gordon's speech was brilliant but Adam Boulton lives on another planet http://tinyurl.com/bxzmey and that planet is planet cheeseburger" Haven't read the link yet, but planet cheeseburger was good enough for me.

He must be joking. Brown's speech was crap. There was nothing new or different in it at all.

I get the impression the press wrote their headlines before Gordon even left UK soil. George Bush was renowned for only spending 4 or 5 hours a day at work, he had plenty of time to schmooze. Obama means business. Going to blog about GB's speech separately.

Well, we're told that Gordon Brown works very long hours in Downing Street. Can't say I've noticed an improvement in the running of the country under him, so who knows what works best?

Never thought I'd hear the words "Genius" and "Prescott" in the same sentence.

Fair play to him on this blogging lark though.

Seventeen standing ovations equate to "crap" in what passes for the Grim Reaper's mind it seems.

I supose he's so much better placed to judge than mere US senators are.

I was holding back on my comment on the speech until Kerry blogged on it so it'd be more relevant, but I guess I can surmarise here.

GB's speech was the most toe-curlingly sycophantic disgracefully trite load of crap I've ever heard. Of course he got standing ovations, because they're American and they would give a standing ovation to Hitler himself if only he bigged up the US for 10 mintutes.

Have to agree strongly with Bristol Dave on this one.

Think someone told me Boulton has given up the fags. I bet he's possibly svelte over there!

On GB's 'shadow markets' - hmm.. what does that mean? Are we gonna shut down Bermuda & the Caymens & Jersey & the Isle of Man & Antinga & the Chaygos Islands??

This Guinea Bissau thing is a bit scary. Coup d'etat's don't happen every day - well, 'trouble at t'drug dealing cartel?
