Gordon Brown declares he 'stands with Margaret Thatcher'

[expatinscotland]

on Scotland's Union w/England, as well as other things.

Nice one, Gordon! Ally yourself w/one of the most detested women in Scotland! That'll get you the votes.

He's a git.

wondr what the response will be on the article - I don't know all the political info on this but it does seem that it will get to many people. What is the labour party general view on this?

I thought the whole of the Labour party stood beside Maggie's views and policies, particularly Tony Blair who is more Tory than anyone!

Who would have thought that Labour would be more odious than the Tories?

Very naive to think that any linking of himself to That Woman is ever going to have a positive connotation.

Am I the only one who is planning to emigrate if Gordon Brown becomes PM?!

He's a freak.

I doubt Margaret will be too chuffed either - I wouldn't like to be associated with GB!

He's just nailing shut his coffin, IMO.

My god, he can get worse than tony blair, I would not have believed it.

What an arse.

Who the feck does he think is going to vote for him, if he basically turns into a right wing david cameron?

Well, lots of people do vote conservative and lots of people did vote for MT

'Gordon Brown doesn't seem to realise that this isn't going to convince anyone south of the Border, but many people in Scotland will regard this as a betrayal.' I don't often agree with Alex Salmond but he's right this time.

The Labour party is a unionist party - no surprises there - but why mention Thatch?

Also love the bit at the end of the article - would bring a tear to a glass eye. This man has no shame. Worse than Blair which is saying something.

I had no idea Thatcher was so hated here, until someone brought her up and a very posh, very well-educated, normally reserved and relatively conservative colleague just went almost ned-like!

But surely conservatives will vote for Cameron? I mean, surely? Why vote for a Torified Labour party when you can have the real thing, with horns on .
