Not all political careers end in failure…

…some explode spectacularly, like New South Wales Police Minister Matt Brown’s:

A witness told The Australian Mr Brown stripped down to his “very brief” underpants and danced to loud “Oxford Street-style” techno music on a green leather Chesterfield couch he had recently ordered for his office.

The witness said Mr Brown “mounted the chest” of Wollongong MP Noreen Hay.

The witness said Mr Brown called out to Ms Hay’s adult daughter during the performance: “Look at this, I’m tittie-f..king your mother!”

More politicians should do it. Surely to God Gordon Brown knows his number’s up. Instead of pathetically limping on for another few months, like a wounded animal, before slowly and painfully expiring in a mewling, sobbing heap, Gordon should dry hump the Home Secretary live at Prime Minister’s Questions.

Gordon would salvage some dignity and the rest of us would talk about nothing else for the rest of our lives.

    Should he step down though, and if so, should they install another Labour PM or have a general election?

    We would be talking about it for the rest of our lives, unfortunately at £50 an hour to a professional therapist.

    It’s obvious where he went wrong.; he should have accused the witnesses of being stalkers with no sense of humour.
