Gordon Brown came out fighting at the CBI last week, but Cameron comes out fighting every day and that’s how he’ll win. The speech Gordon made shows his talent and makes Cameron look like a minnow, but we need more of it as we need continued economic recovery.
We still don’t know if the rally on the stock market is a bear-rally or a bull-rally, but we do know that the longest bear-rally in modern British history before this year was 54 trading days. From March 3rd 2009, this rally has lasted 56 days, pausing only for an embittered central banker. If the rally continues for one more week, then Gordon should come out fighting, the leadership talk should be put back till September, Downing Street should post the CBI speech in full and Gordon should be condemned for his failure to spend £10,000 of the taxpayers money, several years ago, that would have taught him that he dulls when he recites but shines when he speaks.
