Gordon Brown’s Act with George Clooney
At Gordon Brown’s recent meeting with Hollywood giant and UN peace messenger George Clooney, the BBC is reporting that the situation in Darfur was discussed. Mr Brown apparently said that he thought the situation there was unacceptable, but isn’t that something of a contradiction with his actions regarding the Olympics? Given his intent, his comments sound more like a script he was acting rather than his actual opinion on the matter.
China’s involvement with the Darfur crisis is well documented and it is one of the main areas that protesters against the Olympic Games being held in China are up in arms about, yet our esteemed acne prone skin Prime Minister is still intent on making an appearance at the Opening Ceremony. Despite the fact that prominent Heads of State boycotting this ceremony on the grounds of how the Chinese Government is handling certain humanitarian issues could be a global and public declaration of non-acceptance, Gordon Brown is intending to attend thus turning a blind eye to what’s happening as a result of Chinese involvement in Darfur and Tibet.
Words are not enough, it’s time our elected leader became less diplomatic. If Darfur and Tibet had massive oil reserves, would we – and the US - already be taking a more pro-active role in helping the people in these areas? Of course we would!
On a more positive note. This is what I'm going to change next the Microdermabrasion treatment part
