UK Political News:

Election season has well and truly begun for the mud is being slung and most of it is at the ill fated British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. The latest allegations to hit the national press are that Mr. Brown is a Bully and that he bullied staff within Number Ten. The Prime Minister's, aides, friends and spin doctors ran to his aid, but with so many lies under their belt, it seems the British public don't believe a word they say.

The headlines became worse with the founder of a national anti-bullying charity indicating that some staff within Number 10, had called the help-line seeking advice for bullying they had received at the hands of the Prime Minister. The bureaucratic civil service machine retorted that there are internal policies in place to deal with such complaints and that none had been received. Whilst others question whether the head of this charity broke confidentiality with her vague declaration, we question the purpose of the policy flagged up by Downing Street. Whilst everyone may recognise that it works for the majority of staff at lower grades, what conceivably would have happened if such a complaint had been made against the Prime Minister, would he have be sacked? No, would he have his personnel file noted? No, in truth nothing would have happened to the alleged bully, but what about the complainant? In truth the victim from the outset, would again be victimised by being transferred to another office, by having a reputation follow them, by losing career opportunities.

No-one really knows whether the allegations made in the press are true or false, whether they are electioneering or payback, but with the Chancellor now entering the fray indicating that Downing Street aides unleashed 'hell' against him, it makes you think.

It seems that once again New Labour are Britain's Greatest Danger and that they often stand accused of breaking the policies and laws they created
