All former 'Big Beast' politicians try to come back from the dead at some time ..... its just inherent with the territory. So its perhaps no surprise that perhaps the most vilified British Prime Minister in modern UK history, Gordon Brown, has made his bid to have weight again.
His arena, the forthcoming Scottish Independence vote ... an area that he has previous on, as he was a signatory of the "Scottish Claim of Right", in 1988 .. he then led the pro 'devolution' clan in New Labour - one assumes they thought it a wheeze to keep Labour in permanent power in Scotland, but which has in fact resulted in the SNP rise.
Just for those of you weren't aware of what this declaration contained .... here's a flavour
"We, gathered as the Scottish Constitutional Convention, do hereby acknowledge the sovereign right of the Scottish people to determine the form of Government best suited to their needs, and do hereby declare and pledge that in all our actions and deliberations their interests shall be paramount.”
"We further declare and pledge that our actions and deliberations shall be directed to the following ends:
It looks like he then spent his entire career ensuring that this came true .... because nothing else explains why he effectively wrecked the UK economy, and oversaw the SNP gaining power in Scotland. If the Scots do leave the Union, then he will have been one of the architects of the break up of the British state.
In my opinion he can't be trusted on this anymore than any other issue ... and even the current craze for zombies doesn't make anyone want this politician to come back from the dead ....
