Yakking for Argyll

Gordon Brown lost no time in conveying his feelings to the BBC on Russell Brand’s and Jonathan Ross’s competitive lapse of taste. Brand resigned. Ross was suspended. Taking a judgmental position, however, on the unimaginably awful life and death of Baby P is a different matter. Due process rules in this case. Brown may be a Desperate Dan-jowled bully but he’s essentially a self-serving and gutless lightweight. Let’s never again hear the crap about him having a moral compass.
