  1. Is this a joke ? Gordon Brown was a disaster as a Chancelor, as well as a Prime Minister. He was so devoted to Britain he sold off a massive amount of our gold 56% in fact and against the advice of the Bank of England when gold prices were at an historically low value. This was made worse after Brown foolishly announced he would be selling a huge amount and so gold prices collapsed even further. Yet undaunted, Brown went ahead with the sale and Iiterally gave it away at rock bottom price selling 56% of our gold reserves for only $3.5 billion. Soon afterwards gold prices rocketed and the gold was worth $16.4 billion meaning his action had lost us a considerable amount that could have been spent here in Britain. However, why was Brown so determined to sell at the worst moment imaginable ? Later it transpired he did it to support his mates in the EU, by supporting the failing euro. A currency we were not, nor never would be, members of. This shows where Browns loyalties lied, not with his own country Britain, but with the EU. Brown shafted us all !
