Decisive Gordon Brown

The BBC humourously report that:

"Who said Gordon Brown crumbles under questioning? The PM jammy dodged inquiries about his favourite biscuit as he took part in a live web chat.

Mumsnet users speculated that it might be Garibaldi or Nice. Another asked whether he dunked.

But Mr Brown was having none of it and left the hour long session with the question unanswered. "

An alternative way of looking at this story would be that the great fearty that is our Prime Minister is so scared of upsetting any more voters or so removed from normal conversation that couldn't even say what type of biscuit he preferred. I bet Peter Mandelson would be far readier to let the public know what he likes to dunk in his tea.
