BRIT PRIME MINISTER IS AT ODDS WITH OBAMA.
What? Is the honeymoon with Brit left over already?
Well friends, that’s what the front page headline reads. No. Not the honeymoon part. I just asked the question.
Front page simply says Brown is at odds with Obama.
BUT .... The Telegraph being the usual idiot online place it is, there is no link to their own reporter or their own front page. Clever folks over there.
Going to several sources turns up nothing so I guess it’s a secret of some kind.
So here’s the general idea and I’m not going to copy the whole article but will cover a few of the lines because it might be of interest to Americans reading here.
Written by Rosa Prince and nope, I can’t scan it to here at the moment and probably not at all with the stuff I have on hand here.
GORDON BROWN is in disagreement with Barack Obama on two major policy areas days before his first meeting with America’s President-elect.
Despite his desire to share in Mr. Obama’s popularity, the Prime Minister is prepared to risk incurring his displeasure by publicly warning America tonight not to adopt “beggar -thy-neighbor protectionism” as a solution to the financial crisis.
During their talks in Washington,DC this weekend, he will also make clear that the President-elect SHOULD NOT RELY ON BRITISH TROOPS to support his proposed “surge” against the Taliban in Afghanistan.
There is alarm in Downing Street over the protectionist rhetoric used by Mr. Obama in the Democratic primaries.-30-
And that folks is the idea of it. Sorry, no link. Mr. Brown is urging Obama to be “internationalist” and not neutral yadda,yadda.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
