Brown gets lost
Posted by: muhammed ansari on: March 27, 2008
Another hilarious act by our Prime Minister.
Downing Street has insisted Gordon Brown was just “doing what he was told” after apparently getting lost at the state banquet for Nicolas Sarkozy.
The prime minister and French President were among 150 guests at the banquet in St George’s Hall at Windsor Castle.
In television footage, the Queen can be heard saying to Princess Anne: “The prime minister got lost. He disappeared the wrong way…at the crucial moment.”
No 10 said the PM “does what he’s told on these state occasions”.
President Sarkozy sat between the Queen and the Duchess of Cornwall, while his wife Carla sat on the other side of the table.
Mr Brown was due to sit opposite as well, but, judging by the Queen’s comments picked up by television microphones, must have taken his seat late.

The movement towards greater respect and cooperation between Britain and France was certainly not helped by the Queen’s vicious and rather childish belittling of this country’s prime minister, in front of Sarkozy. Who is she really working for, the Germans?

The Queen should have whispered discretely to one of her courtiers to go and find him instead of humiliating the prime minister like that. Doesn’t she have any common sense in that aristocratic head of hers?
