I think perhaps Gordon Brown may be viewed by some as a failure as PM but the same surely can't be said about his tenure as Chancellor.
His time at the Treasury ultimately caused his failure as PM - reckless spending, poor regulation of the banks, promoting a crazy housing boom which has turn into a social disaster for our young people.
Our grandkids will be paying for Brown's mistakes.
Brown being unsuitable for the IMF suggests he must actually be competent then.
Given that the IMF are the clowns who destroyed Argentina's economy (50% of population poverty), they are not worth anything more than a fat pay check, which is the only reason people work for the IMF; the ridiculous money.
Do you think the Latin American nations give a flying toss who heads the IMF? They don't.
Dominic Strauss Kahn kept his job at the IMF despite shagging his staff, which makes Cameron's objection all the more farcical.
The IMF says it believes in the free market, ergo the IMF should abolish itself
Most amusing and they talk about not rewarding failure, the IMF would be a laughing stock with Brown at the helm.
The IMF is already a laughing stock.
The IMF has a failure record of 100%, and is a deeply ideological political organization which pretends to be a "world body".
Surely that simply means their forecasts were cr*p?
Or that their eonomic stimulous plans worked better than they thought?
It could have also been deliberate over estimation to make themselves look good, but even then, Osborne is saving a lot less on the deficit than Darling even when Osborne is making cuts! Darling didn't make cuts and still borrowed less because one way or the other, the plans to stimulate the economy where working very very well.
Or that their eonomic stimulous plans worked better than they thought?
Hmm, they have a record of their policies not delivering what was originally claimed and their predictions falling short (remember when they claimed only 10,000 would turn up from Eastern Europe) - so really the idea that this is the one time that they had an accurate forecast and a policy that worked better then they originally thought is stretching credulity.

Current problems are due to the credit crunch.
Had Brown not saved the UK financial system, we'd have had a 1930s repeat.

Ah, so that's why Brown wants to join... comrades in arms, and all that. It all makes sense now - Brown's finally found somewhere where he'll fit in. Bless.

When Mr Cameron was adviser to Mr Lamont on Black Wednesday, when interest rates shot up how many times in a day , when we had to spend a fortune on being bounced out of the ERM , didnt these actions work out at about £30k for every man , woman & child in the UK?
We all pay for politicians mistakes, be it when you get on a bus, turn a light on, turn the gas boiler on, take a train trip , turn on a tap, we are all paying for mistakes. Some more costlier in the long run than others.
Mr Brown is as well qualified to be head of the IMF as George Osbourne is to be chancellor.

They achieved, more than achieved their targets of recruiting 20 thousand extra doctors, ended up with 90 thousand extra nurses got a record amount of police which we so need, they increased the prisons and places but should have done it more and faster.
I think a lot of people forget that when a recession happens, the Government loses loads of money from the taxes that would have been paid, from the unemployed people having hardly anything to spend on goods and services and then the billions that benefits costs and thats why borrowing really rocketted once the credit crunch came in, then the recession and that massive 800 billion bank bail out.
Had Brown not saved the UK financial system, we'd have had a 1930s repeat.
Well there not, but even if they were it is a situation that Brown (who as Chancellor is in charge of the economy) allowed to develop, either by inaction or deliberately.
British banks failed because of their own loans (and in the case of RBS it was over leveraged on the takeover of ABN Amro).
So why was my posts removed regarding Brown, is criticism of him not allowed?, guess the mods were leaned on.;)
As a constituent i have had enough of this lying clown, won't answer constituents but is still trousering a salary plus expenses for doing little or in my case bugger all regarding the problem we have.
As i said the constituency is soulless and deprived and Brown has done nothing for it in all the time he has represented this area in the Commons, had to laugh at his recent claims about bringing 10,000 jobs to Dunfermline in regards to the old Hyundai site at Halbeath. Does he really live in the same world we inhabit?.

Brown is most of the reason why we're in the excrement.
They achieved, more than achieved their targets of recruiting 20 thousand extra doctors, ended up with 90 thousand extra nurses got a record amount of police which we so need, they increased the prisons and places but should have done it more and faster.

So he saved us from what?
The current austerity?
Paying millions of pounds a day in interest on Brown's borrowings?
Well there not, but even if they were it is a situation that Brown (who as Chancellor is in charge of the economy) allowed to develop, either by inaction or deliberately.

Keep that pathetic liability away from the IMF.
