Anything for a vote?

How unedifying is this spectacle of Gordon Brown pouring out his heart to Piers Morgan in a staged interview designed apparently to portray him as more of a touchy-feely character. We have the emotion of him talking about the death of his new-born daughter eight years ago. Yes - eight years! I am not doubting the sincerity of his feelings, but why has he waited eight years to tell us about them? Is it anything to do with the fact that we are within a few weeks of a general election? Make up your own mind.
