Peter Mullan: Gordon Brown
Quotes
-
Tony Blair : You've learned nothing from me, Gordon - absolutely nothing. Because if you had, you would have acquired at least a *hint* of charisma. But then you and charisma have never really been on speaking terms.
Gordon Brown : The public don't want charisma any more - what they want is honesty.
Tony Blair : Instead of which, they get you!

[Now led by Gordon Brown, Labour have just won a fourth term in office - but with an absurdly small majority. Gordon rings Tony.]
Tony Blair : Gordon, my congratulations.
Gordon Brown : I am heading for a majority of two, for God's sake. Two!
Tony Blair : Well a majority's a majority.
Gordon Brown : It's going to be a bloody disaster.
Tony Blair : It's the historic fourth term, Gordon.
Gordon Brown : You are electoral death!
Tony Blair : I don't think you can blame *me* for what you call your ludicrously small majority.
Gordon Brown : You've held onto power for far too long, Tony.
Tony Blair : Oh really? Well quite frankly if I'd packed it in sooner you'd only have had more time to balls it up, wouldn't you?
