Gordo's Black Wednesday?

Here's a small hand grenade lobbed at the Bottler by Peter McKay in the Mail today, which contains the following elegantly aimed detonation:

We're now at the fag end of New Labour, which began, you'll remember, with the adman's lie about being "tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime".

Its leader, Tony Blair, is off making his fortune with an American bank and other moneymaking enterprises.

Nothing responds to Government action now - not the economy, not the health system, not our transport network, not the criminal justice system.

Living under Gordon Brown's Government is like being on a plane after the engines have died, like BA038 approaching Heathrow.

Can he get it over the airport perimeter fence before pancaking into a full recession and crisis of confidence?


You can read the whole thing here.

But here's the real thing, the equivalent of nuclear explosion which looks likely to vapourise the Bottler in his entirety, leaving behind not so much as a wisp of smoke. It's an offering in The Times by Anatole Kaletsky and is, in every way, devastating for the Bottler.
