The Gordon Brown Incident.

I'm sorry for the delay but I've been operating in reality all day so it was hard for me to make the connection.

Today the British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown was recorded in a private conversation with an aide in his car referring to a constituent as a bigot. In itself this isn't news because politicians are recorded all the time making comments about people they'd prefer not to have made public. Apart from the obvious electoral damage it does to Gordon Brown and the assistance it gives to the British National Party the purpose of this incident being blown up into a scandal is twofold;

Firstly it allows the Brits to circulate information so mis-informed it borders on delusional fantasy about my exploits in this court business.

Secondly it meant to make me and other people paranoid that their cars are being bugged. Although I know as fact that in my case this is untrue it doesn't worry me because I'm actually a bit offended when I'm not being bugged.
