Hi, Madgirl,
Been a while...hope this finds you well. Yes, you have a point, but he is STILL the Prime Minister of the UK. However, the mere fact that he bothered to write his personal letters by hand is something to be admired. But do you also know that he is blind in one eye, and the other eye is just plodding on, so to speak? The school kids though aren't taught standard handwriting in Britain which is unfortunate. In my day, we were taught proper/standard handwriting too. My mother, her sisters, my cousins and my sisters have identical handwriting, believe it or not. The newspaper, The Sun, is bent on getting rid of Gordon Brown, hence, they released the letter. Poor Brown then had a chat with her, then the Sun recorded the conversation! Is that democracy or is that abused democracy? Only in the UK.
