Did anyone else notice that when G Brown laid his wreath, he didn't bow his head? Just shows what he thinks of those who gave their lives!

I did notice that, I would be loathe to read too much into the inference.
"Just shows what he thinks of those who gave their lives! "

Sorry, what does it show?
It shows he is stiff necked!
LOL
I noticed and came on here as I just knew that someone would post about it.
Wasnt disappointed !!!
I also would like to know what you think of the people who gave their lives through all those years of conflict fighting for Queen/King and country ?
You think what Gordon Brown thought?
Many millions of people did not observe 2 minutes of silence today. Just shows what they think of those who gave their lives.

Or maybe not.

Question Author
Why am I being slated here? Everyone else who laid wreaths either saluted or bowed their heads. Both done as a mark of respect. Therefore, because Brown did neither, I think it showed a lack of respect, but obviously none of you think the same.
Those in uniform, salute. Everybody else bows their head as a mark of respect.
how much effort is there involved in that,if you have no respect for the thousands who died,who do you respect ?

Please feel free to start off a question, in the meantime why don't you answer your own question, and then others can join in.
As far as the Politicians are concerned, they should not let the hypocrites attend Remembrance Day

What I would like to see on TV is a panel made up of our politicians, facing an audience of the families and friends of our service men and women.

Maybe then we could watch these politicians try and squirm out of answering, when asked, why our troops are out in Afghanistan.
AOG

Political heads have to make decisions, some will be bad, some indifferent and some good, but the bottom line is, that decisions have to be made.

One is very popular when one makes popular decisions, but unpopular when they are not that good.

Neither me or you AOG would like to have to make decisions when they turn out to be bad or unpopular.

Casualties always happen in war.....military and civiilan.

AOG, how did the general public view Churchill after the Dardanelles?
How did they view him at the outbreak of war?
After the Naarvik campaign?
Churchill was deeply unpopular in Britain at the time (Halifax was more favoured) were they right?
How do you think the families of the men of the 8th army felt after he denuded them of troops (ust as they were about to rout the Italians) for the disastrous campaign in Salonika?
P.S.
Churchill was an unelected prime minister also.
Politicians govern, that's just the way of it, at least until someone can think of a better way.

AOG -I didnt phrase my initial post properly -I attempted to rectify it by posting underneath meaning what she thought Gordon Brown thought of the people........... theres always one isnt there *sigh*

BTW -should I wish to post a thread I shall under my own volition and not at the suggestion of the News 'monitor'.

I used to enjoy the News section-why cant people use it as a debating/discussion forum without highlighting particular posts in the manner which AOG did?
And i want to know why David Cameron was wearing a blue tie and not a black one.Brown wore black.That just shows what Cameron thinks of those who died for their country. Making a political point too. Blue is the Tory colour.........[cont. p94]
fred...yeah! very good point, but did you notice that Brown had a pair of RED(Labour) underpants but at least Cameron had a BLACK bra.
