BAD BRIEF ENCOUNTER
Gillian – no relation –
The nation was Browned off
Until homely-you homed in.
You sent him reeling -
Now we know the real Gordon.
His line was unacceptable.
The Gaffer seems accident prone,
Flat on his face again,
Eating grumble pie
And media source.
Though momentarily thrown,
He still aspires to one.
C.A.D.
Notes: This purported Carol Ann Duffy poem, said to have been found in a taxi, written on a haggis wrapper, is believed to be her ‘take’ on the Gordon Brown – Gillian Duffy meeting (28thApril 2010).

Oh Adam - I think that is the pejorative form of 'clever'. And I would never dream of terming CBT 'sweetie'. Have you read her CV? 'Running to the bar'? Is that the only support you can find??
