Gordon Brown the member for Tripoli South

Seeing how the Sunday Times has reported that Gordon Brown: "personally vetoed an attempt to force Colonel Muammar Gadaffi to compensate IRA bomb victims because it might have jeopardised British oil deals with Libya"; and the Sunday Telegraph is reporting that: "the British, Scottish and Libyan governments connived to free Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi on compassionate grounds" it would seem appropriate to designate Gordon Brown as the Dishonourable Member for Tripoli South.

However, there is also an important question that needs to be asked. With the accumulating evidence showing that Gordon Brown is a two-faced liar and his government caved into to Libyan blackmail over trade and oil instead of putting justice first, and mindful of his call for British jobs for British workers, should there now be a rallying cry demanding that we have a "British Prime Minister for British People"?

Afghanistan highlights the two faces of Gordon Brown

Do you know what two things I dislike most about Gordon Brown? His face. The man isn't just incapable of telling the truth or giving a straight answer to a question. He's also unable to maintain a consistent position when he speaks to different audiences.

On Friday it was widely reported that Brown said Britain's military will stay in Afghanistan until the country's own security forces can fight the Taliban and al Qaeda without assistance, dismissing as the Wall Street Journal put it, a call from one of his government's defence aides to begin planning a pullout from the country. Yet from today's Independent on Sunday we learn that:

Gordon Brown has put the United States on notice that he wants to cut UK troop numbers from more than 9,000 to fewer than 5,000 in "three to five years, maximum", according to senior sources at the Ministry of Defence.

Our forces in Afghanistan are already overstretched and the training of Afghan security forces is not delivering the required results, but Brown's answer is to reduce the size of the UK force by nearly half. It's the clearest signal that the UK, having been effectively defeated in southern Iraq, is preparing to pull out from Afghanistan too.

Under Labour the size and capability of our armed forces has been slashed. Despite that our military has been sent all over the world to do much more in terms of operations with far less in terms of men and equipment. It's an insult for Brown to tell the British people that we're in Afghanistan until the job, whatever that might be, is done and at the same time tell the Americans we're going to run away again like we did in Iraq.

A Labour government put our men and women in harm's way without a clear mission and the Ministry of Defence failed them by buying unsuitable equipment for the task at hand resulting in deaths that were avoidable. The nation should be in a raging fury at the unnecessary deaths of too many of our soldiers, the incompetence of the MoD, and lack of leadership and weasel words we have witnessed from the government. It is a disgrace and a humiliation.

Gordon Brown's Libya lies exposed

When people wanted to know what Gordon Brown thought of the Scottish decision to free Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al-Megrahi from prison on compassionate grounds, he refused to say. In typical cowardly fashion he claimed it was a matter for the devolved Scottish Parliament and put as much distance between him and the issue as possible. Now we know why.

The Prime Minister of this country and his government of incompetents decided in 2007 to put commercial interests ahead of justice and use al-Megrahi as a pawn in a multi-million-pound oil exploration deal between Libya and BP. The punishment of the man convicted of the mass murder of 270 people was reduced to a mere bargaining chip as the Labour Prime Minister put the interests of business first.

Gordon Brown talks about his moral compass and takes every opportunity to portray himself as a moral man because his father was a church minister. But Brown has no integrity and no honour. His sum total is a self centred desire to be the man in charge for no other purpose than the thrill of wielding power. His premiership is limited to playing political games of one-upmanship, like this example of trumping David Cameron's trip to Afghanistan. He is completely shameless. He is fundamentally dishonest. He is a coward of the worst kind.
