Finally a logical explanation for the release of al-Megrahi

The Daily Mash reports that:

"GORDON Brown is pinning Labour's re-election hopes on securing the support of as many UK-based terrorists as possible, it emerged last night.

As it was revealed that Mr Brown supported the release of Lockerbie bomber Abdelbasset Ali al-Megrahi, Labour's internal polling shows the party has taken a 43-point lead over the Tories among terrorists, would-be terrorists and furious men with beards.

The polling results show that Mr Brown is favoured by terrorists on a range of key issues including education, the environment, support for small and medium sized enterprises and letting them out of jail after eight years if they blow something up."

Do read the whole article, it makes more sense than much of what Jack Straw and Davis Miliband have been claiming.
