Spot on..... he turned out to be a scumbag.

He stole 30 billion out of private pensions.

It cut my private pension by about half after me paying in for over 30 years.


PS think he did more harm to this country than May BUT she was a very close second

Re: Our Chancellor

As far as I am concerned, the only good thing Brown did was resist joining the Euro and stayed with the Pound Stirling; for that and that alone, I am grateful.

That wasn't through any business acumen on his part, it was to spite Tony Bliar who was (and is) an outright Europhile determined to make the UK a complete and total member of the EU and all that that entailed.
