Brown in bullying storm

Brown in bullying storm
Downing Street has issued a defence after an anti-bullying charity boss said its helpline had received several calls about the treatment of No 10 staff. Allies of the Prime Minister have challenged the claims and called for the helpline to prove them while the patron of the charity has resigned.

Red Rag

Ms Pratt has backpedaled and when asked "Has anyone ever said that Gordon Brown has bullied me" she replied "ABSOLUTELY NOT". One of the other patrons of the Bullying Line has resigned in disgust at Ms Pratts actions. Seems another Tory smear has backfired. http://redrag1.blogspot.com/

Red Rag

It gets worse, she is now saying that when she found out what had been alleged she reported it to....The Tories. http://redrag1.blogspot.com/

Billy Blofeld

Either way - Brown's henchmen seem to be attempting to smear an anti-bullying charity. This whole episode has the whiff of Dr David Kelly's death about it.............

christina speight

These allegations have been around - almost entirely from labour sources - for some time. Brown's lack of balance is sell known. There is just too much evidence to toss it aside as Red Rag does. The Labour spin machine is in overdrive and even it cannot do a Lady Macbeth on Brown with this and wash the stain from his hands.

christina speight

The way PoliticsHome is reporting this is to give 100% credence to anything the (Campbell directed ?) Labour spinners say to discredit the mass of evidence going back for a long time. This in keeping with the whole tone of the site now - totally committed to backing the man who has ruined us - Gordon Brown. The whole blog is now a Labour mouthpiece.

christina speight ============ Not true. I generally find the comments on this site sympathetic to the Tories and attack labour at almost every chance. The Lib Dem stories rarely get commented on (lol). It' also interesting to see comments added at the end of related articles in the Guardian and Independent are also anti Brown on this one

Jane Roberts

I find the allegations all too likely to be true, but if they aren't, let Brown sue.

What a load of rubbish we have to endure, this is obviously politically motivated even a child could see that. May I suggest we all take note of all the silly remarks, statements from the other two main parties who see this as a good opportunity for vote catching, and DUMP THE LOT at the next election and VOTE FOR THE NEW.

Simon Castle

Jeff Randall claimed that David Cameron was a bully - this is a specific and public allegation - why is a generalised smear more news worthy?
