Hello, Gordon calling

[jaysay]

It appears that our wonderful leader Gordon Brown has got the habit of ringing people at random to get their views. If he rang you what would you say, and remember folks this is not the over 18s YET

I think I'd tell him the he'd be better off going back to bonny scotland and trying for a place on his homeland parliament, anything to get him out of our hair

[andrewb]

I'd advise him to retire with immediate effect. It would be in Labour's long term interests and certainly the countries!

[emamum]

the conversation...

GB...'hello'
Me...'who is this?'
GB.....'its the prime minister'
Me...'Tony Blair?'
GB....'no, the new prime minister'
Me....'the stand in then.. not the actual prime minister?'
GB....'erm...'
Me.....' So, how can i help you?'
GB.....' I am interested in your views'
Me......' oh right..... not enough help for single and low income families or the elderly and personally think that a prime minister should be elected into the post and not just have it passed onto him'
GB.....'erm.....'
Me....' I also think BT should be in trouble for passing my ex-directory number on to people'
GG......'ERM....'
Me....'goodbye Gordon'

I would tell him I'm signed up to the Telephone Preference service and that I would be reporting him for cold calling me.

Actually, if he phoned me up at 6am (apparently he made one of his first calls at this hour, presumably because he's so divorced from the real world, he doesn't realise that most people don't like to be disturbed at that time in the morning), all he would receive from me would be a two-word suggestion connected with sex and travel.

[lancsdave]

If he rang me I would ask him to create a new law to ban politics

[forceten]

Thing is, how many people would think it was him and not somebody winding them up?

Well he hasn't phoned me and I've written to him, mind you he may just think that I don't really see eye to eye with his way of thinking

Not just that, you would know it was him, as he has to pause after every sentence to do that STUPID thing where he has to suck his bottom lip in after he says anything I can't take that man seriously ( Not that anyone can ) ....... I am just sat waiting for when he does it next


If he called me, I would tell him to get off the phone, I'm waiting for a exciting phone call off the Double Glazing sales team, that phone every tea time.

[derekgas]

I would remind him that the labour party used to be the Labour party, and not the 'new Labour' tories that they have become.

[garinda]

Scotland is awash with call centres.

This experience could very well secure him a job in the very near future.

[cashman]

well even though i aint keen on him, i think its a good tactic n think a tactic other leaders would be wise to follow, think its probably a bit of envy on the saddo tory voters side.

[mrskitty]

I would ask him to call back at a later date, so i could work out what i would like to say

[jambutty]

Actually he doesn’t ring numbers at random but in response to some of the many letters and emails that he receives daily.

My response would be to ask why we are not getting a referendum on the EU constitution thing when it was promised that we would get one.
