Damian McBride and Gordon BrownIf anyone doubts that Gordon Brown and his sleazy Labour Government are doomed, the scandal over Damian McBride's scurrilous activities in spinning poisonous lies about leading Conservative politicians, including my local MP Nadine Dorries, pictured right, has exposed its corrosive political culture.
Damian McBride was a senior civil servant, paid for by the taxpayer as Gordon Brown's Head of Policy and Strategy. In the middle of a serious economic crisis when the Labour Government was lending £10 Billion to banks and fighting two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, McBride had time to draft emails which aimed to assassinate the reputations of leading Conservative politicians including David Cameron and George Osborne. He invented a story about the mental state of George Osbone's wife Frances and told a pack of lies about Nadine Dorries who now plans to sue him for libel.
McBride's activities in briefing the media and starting a Labour Blog Red Rag to spread vicious lies about the Conservatives was exposed by Paul Staines in his popular Blog Guido Fawkes, which receives 100,000 unique visitors a month.
As a local Conservative Councillor I am now planning my campaign to be elected as a Conservative Bedford Unitary Councillor for Elstow and Wilstead on Thursday 4 June 2009.
Roll on 2010 when a Conservative Government will be elected and we can be rid of Gordon Brown and his incompetent and dishonest political colleagues and repair the economic damage caused by Gordon Brown and Tony Blair for the last 12 years.
