What would a British summer be without annoying disappointment? While the country are off enjoying a burger and a glass of lime cordial with the Ashes Tests on the TV, the unfortunate and unfair embarrassment of our very own Gordon Brown continues. When the Scottish government come out and say that they are "releasing the person responsible for the Lockerbie bomb attack", you just know somebody is going to face the wrath of humiliation. Barack Obama has come out and said that the UK have made a 'mistake' and if that wasn't enough, jolly old Colonel Gaddafi has 'thanked' Gordon Brown for 'encouraging' the release of Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi, the bomber I mentioned earlier. Of course, as with most things Libya-related, this infuriates me. Gaddafi said; "the UK prime minister had "encouraged" the Scottish Government to take what he called a "courageous" decision. Others went on to suggest it was linked to a trade deal with Libya! A trade deal?! What the hell do we have to trade? We don't make anything and their economy is in freefall, well, come to think of it, so is ours. But they do have a large amount of oil and gas... The Foreign Office have gone on to strongly deny those allegations. He is just generally annoying, Gaddafi, I mean. He knows what affect comments such as his could ahve on British politics and on the Labour Party. But who knows maybe, secretly, he's a raging David Cameron fan! Let's hope not, eh?
