No show at Crewe,incapable of running the economy and unable to face being wrong

Guido is not happy with Gordon Brown's non appearance in the Crewe and Nantwich hustings.


Whenever New Labour were in trouble Tony Blair would lead from the front, whatever you may say about him, he never feared to open the batting however sticky the wicket
.

However

Gordon avoids elections wherever possible, he chickened out of a contest with Blair for the leadership in 1994, he engineered a coronation unopposed for the party leadership in July 2007 and he bottled holding a mandate producing election in October 2007
....and for Guido

Gordon is a truly pathetic figure, on Friday morning Labour will have to face up to their mistake.


He isn't the only one who is unhappy with Gordon.In the Telegraph Simon Heffer says of the 10p tax u turn

The £2.7 billion loan, at a time when we are grotesquely over-borrowed, is the final sign not merely that this man has no idea about sound economics, but that he is unfit to see the country through hard times
adding that

Mr Brown is as fit to preside over economic recovery as Harold Shipman would be to chair a conference on medical ethics


In the Times Matthew Paris questions the PM's decision making process

If you can admit you’re wrong, then you don’t need to admit to being pushed by others, but only by your own intelligence, to alter course. If you can admit to being pushed by others you don’t need to admit you were ever wrong: you’ve altered course for collegiate reasons, against your best judgment. But if you are to insist both that your first decision was right, and that your second thoughts do not arise from arm-twisting, you get into an awful tangle when challenged to explain your change of mind.
