Amateur History Boy
I listen to “Any Answers” and the people who phone up seem so sure of themselves. What am I trying to say? Given the same set of facts available and in this case the things Gordon Brown has done, it seems possible to draw a spectrum of conclusions. He is described as a towering genius and as a waste of space. He is almost certainly neither but I feel a mission creeping over me to be a bit of an amateur historian. When Ho Chi Minh was asked whether the French Revolution had been a success he replied that it was much too soon to say. I think he was just being a clever dick.
