Followers of this blog will recall that I posted of a story by Fraser Nelson of the Spectator and columnist for the Sunday rag the News of the World alledging that Gordon Brown has used prescription drugs to cure depression.
I wondered who would be the first MP publically to raise this issue, but first off the block is Andrew Marr. On his Sunday morning show on BBC1 Marr asked Gordon if he is addicted to prescription drugs. Brown asnwered empathically no.
This now leaves two possibilities, one that Gordon may have used prescription drugs in the past as Prime Minister to cure depression which leaves a lot of questions to be answered or two, this may pan out like the Charlie Kennedy situation a few years back when he repeatedly denied that he had a drink problem.
One thing is for sure, the BBC could not have been happy with Andrew Marr for upsetting their New Labour love in. Don't be surprised if Marr is given his P45 or moved to 'lighter duties'.
