BLOG: Stone the crows, it's Gordon Brown!

It looks as if the strain is starting to tell on Prime Minister Gordon Brown as the General Election campaign reaches its climax.

The ill-fitting suit, the grim smile and fixed expression  . . .  and that’s the just the real one.

This version of the PM  taking a break with the paper is a topical entry in Tickhill’s first Scarecrow Festival, organised by the Tickhill Together Group.

And if, as many are predicting, Mr Brown finds himself out of a job come Friday morning maybe he’ll find a new role in a field near you .  .. scaring the birds, instead of the voters!
