GORDON BROWN

Following on from my previous remarks about Gordon Brown's request that we should throw away less food I see he is now at the G8 summit. On day 1 the assembled world leaders and their womenfolk attended a 6 course lunch and an 8 course dinner. I don't know how much food was wasted (perhaps some scraps were handed out to the African leaders who had not been invited to the banquet) but this sort of junket is paid for by the very people Gordon is haranguing.
