  1. I think Browns You Tube moment should be number one.

    It's the moment when even I (as opposed to the serial fruit cakes to conspire with Guido) began to suspect that the man is ever so slightly unhinged.

    It was also, as ever with Brown, a total policy shambles.

    PS - for believers in the Jonah Effect, the sad death of Labour MP David Taylor was preceded by a visit by Brown to his constituency.
