How our First Lady of charity became second-hand Norma

Sunday February 28 2010

East Berlin tonight. And menace . . . The street lights are blinking just up ahead at this late hour. A man with a face straight out of The Shining or The Butcher Boy, who has already lurched past myself and Mieke Vanmechelen five minutes before, is now running back in our direction.

THINK of it as the Scots Presbyterian work ethic. If Gordon Brown wants any bullying done, he'll do it himself, thank you very much. His predecessor as British prime minister simply dispatched his venomous reptile of a special adviser, Alastair Campbell, to do the yelling and shoving on his behalf.
