Talk about a Government of all the talents. Gordon appears to have recruited soccer mega-star David Beckham to his increasingly formidable team. I don’t know what job Gordon has in mind for Becks. Sports Tsar? An ambassadorial role? (Beckham is of course famous in every country on earth.) But one thing is certain – young people probably look up to David Beckham even more than they do to Gordon Brown, so yet again Gordon has demonstrated his uncanny ability to reach out to every corner of the population. Gordon and David make a fine duo and will clearly enjoy the benefits of a little of each other’s stardust. Here’s a sonnet on it:
Statesman and sportsman – both exuding class,
And neither would his solemn duty shirk.
For Becks delivers many a curving pass,
And Brown delivers policies that work.
And from a spot kick Becks beat mighty Greece,
And wondrous football glories did unfold.
In Kenya Gordon pledged to broker peace,
And earned us billions with his sale of gold.
Becks is identified all over earth,
And though the Tories cruelly plan to wreck ‘em
ID cards, keeping us secure from birth,
Make us identifiable as Beckham.
Now Gordon’s given Becks some vital role.
Well done you both. I’ll just conclude with Gooooooaaaaaallllll…

One can scarcely tell the difference between Mr Brown and Mr Beckham these days, except David doesn't seem to feel the cold quite as much as Gordon.
It is possible that but for that unlucky accident Mr Brown had, today we would be looking at PM Becks inviting rugby hero Gords to No 10 to consult about how to get the nation's youth running around and losing weight.
What a pickle the country would have been in though, if Mr Beckham had been in charge. Although lovely, the man knows nothing about money, has barely a penny to his name, and we would all be in the same boat!
