probably in there offering to buy her a house, send on holiday and bribe his way out of it.
either that or there will be a smear campaign about her and she will go the way of David Kelly...

After someone of his position had just said something like that about you on national tv, would you take an apology?

Maybe not but a fortnight in the caribean might go some way to make me feel better about being insulted by my Prime Minister.
I have visions of him being chased down the street by Mrs Duffy weilding a rolling pin ala last of the summer wine.

Did anyone see the footage this morning when he was on a meet and greet with his wife. She was practically steering him. Talk about a puppet!!

Just come out the house spouting and grinning, ****!
Apparently it was her fault for not being clear about what she meant. And he just used a "wrong word" when he was talking about it.

He has hasn't he!
Smiles all round with the following lie "I missunderstood what she was saying"
No you didn't, you just didn't have a decent answer for any of her questions and actually miss-used the word bigot because she wasn't.
Quite funny really - you couldn't make it up!

BREAKING NEWSThe prime minister says he is "mortified" at what happened. He says he is a "penitent sinner", who misunderstood what she had said to him earlier and that she has accepted his apologies

I love the way the police all left with him, leaving the poor woman surrounded and trapped in her house by the media now.
Misunderstanding? My ****!!!
He's still trying to cover his ****.
If he'd have just been honest and said yep I f*cked up what I said was wrong and I'm sorry. But oh no he know has to come out with some bollocks that he misunderstood what she had said.
Does he really think we are THAT stupid???
Just go away now Brown, your days and your party's days are numbered.

She has refused to come out for comment (assuming she isn't trussed up in the cellar) and at least one of Brown's goons is still outside her door just in case she tries it on (Risin tipped umbrella at the ready).
Brown should have let it go, now all the media want to know is if she will still vote Labour after the apology in person. When and even if we find out, should the answer be no then that may well be the killer blow for Labour. Had he let it go her voting choice would have been probably predictable but far less dangerous.
Is it Sue's fault perhaps?
