    Worth a read, if only to spot the number of cliches and excuses he manages to cram into it. I really would like him to say I'm sorry, didn't see it coming, made a bit of a mistake but please give me another chance. Not the rubbish contained in that article. Like a pathetic kid who with the help of a team of script writers is trying to bluff his way out of a mess he created.

    It stinks Mr. Brown, it stinks.

    LOL

    Where he says "Today the issues may be different, more complex, more global. "And yet the qualities we need to meet them the British people have demonstrated in abundance before."

    Yes.

    In the early 1970s under the last Labour govt. :D

    Winter of Discontent, anyone?

    Being bonkers and having Aspergers are NOT connected.

    Certainly isn't..some of the comments on that article are so un-informed.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Delusions of grandeur, unrealistic analysis, stubborn denial of self evident truths, perhaps not clinically psychotic or even aspergic but as has been said a man with deep character flaws.
