The poor "WILL" never have enough. Because the rich "CAN" never have enough.

The UK is steadily slipping into a 3rd world country, and it's terrifying.

A record 3 million food parcels have been handed out in the past year.

The gap between Gordon's focus and that of our current government is simply jawdropping...

Gordon helped put the UK into poverty taxed pensions and sold UK gold , but told everyone he was going to do it and the price crashed. Praised the UK banking system and allowed deregulation, banks then crashed. The first food bank opened in the Uk when T bliar was pm, but strange how they will always blame someone else. ?

Talking about shampoo and toothpaste being a luxury item to people in the UK and it almost not being shocking because this kind of thing now has become so normalised, is what is so shocking

Corporate welfare, anyone? Getting rid of obscene poverty could be easily fixed with the government insider trading that bring millions per politician EVERYWHERE

And Mr Billionaire Sunak dont give a Toss...

Britain has the sixth largest economy in the world, with a smaller population than the USA, China or Germany. This really shouldn’t be happening in the twenty-first century in the country that gave birth to the Industrial Revolution. Does anyone at Number 10 have a conscience?

Whilst immigrants get free accommodation in our fully booked hotels with personal shefs and cleaners with manned security...

But there,s money hotels etc for those immigrants ??????????

He literally imported millions of poor people

After bankrupting the country and then inviting in the entire third world to stretch resources to breaking point.. all I can say about this man's self awareness is... dumbfounding.

Interesting that since leaving government this guy has devoted his time to poverty home and abroad and the others have been on the speaker circuit cashing in, enough said really

This smacks of hypocrisy. Gordon Brown sounds like he cares in this Sky News interview but it is all very easy to point to the terrible state of Britain today (and I agree, there is a huge amount of suffering and poverty amongst ordinary Britons now and we've sunk to just about a third world state) but what about the damage he caused when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer and Prime Minister.? Yes, I despise the Conservative government for not caring one jot about the British public, throwing away billions of pounds of our money on idiotic and wasteful projects (net zero, for example, or housing illegal migrants in luxury hotels). However, I can remember what Blair and Brown did to our country. They initiated the massive increase in migrants coming into the UK, thus making our housing shortage even worse, increasing the pressure on the struggling NHS and education system, plus diluting our own culture and traditions .In addition, Gordon Brown stole our work pensions that many of us were relying on to avoid poverty in old age. He was also stupid enough to sell much of Britain's gold reserves at a very low price on the market., so impoverishing Britain even more. And does he really care about the ordinary people? Don't forget what he called 65 year old pensioner Gillian Duffy from Rochdale (who was a Labour supporter) when she politely asked him a question about immigration and the economy. Her question was in no means aggressive or challenging and was a fair one, given her circumstances. Thinking the microphone was switched off, Brown expressed rage to his aides saying "Who let this bigoted woman in?" There was no way that Gillian Duffy was a "bigot" but it seems that Brown doesn't like us ordinary people disagreeing with him. He's also a Global ist, and like Tony Blair and most of our politicians, supports such elitist organisations as the W E F and the W H O. who are out to destroy the nation state. There's much more I could say, but this comment is too long already! Basically, do not trust him.

The poorer are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer we'll said Gordon Brown people in Scotland are struggling

14 years of Tory misrule brought us here and a difficult subject to listen to. Also huge contrast in the quality of political oratory compared to the likes of Sunak.

10 million day spent on adult men in hotels so why give this men air time

Take some responsibility Gordon. Mass immigration has squeezed out indigenous people. There is no more room in this country.

They let afghan asylum in and put them in nice hotel but their own British people are in poverty.

Wecould have used some our gold stocks to finance help but some fool. Sold half of it off. at the bottom of the market. Did he hate us soooo much ?? Now we are skint we could have used. that gold now at highest levels. UGH!!

Obscene is exactly the right word. These are our future adult citizens, what physical and psychological problems will they carry forward? 😢

The Tories really are burning everything to the ground before they're ousted.

Poverty is real & conservatives choose to ignore the JRF research, if only they went to see these poor areas where poverty is in plain sight - it’s the role of the gov to see that policies are balanced to reduce poverty levels, but they have failed & have let people down. How is it that working people are destitute & visiting food banks? Clearly the way out of poverty is not employment now is it? Gas lighting & blaming individuals to cover up failed fiscal policies & they are powerless to regulate private corporations such as energy, phone, supermarket chains who insist on greedflation paying CEOs obscene bonuses whilst pushing up inflation… its grotesque in the simplest term

After Rishi Sunak many UK families know where the nearest FOOD BANK IS

TORIES ARE NOT CALLED LOWER THAN VERMIN FOR NOTHING

He sold the gold. It's his fault.

Shame Gordon and his Chum Tony caused this tragedy. Strange how the perpetrators shout the loudest. I support Dr David Starkey and his analysis of this travestry.

It's pretty crazy that this guy has more credibility than Sunak and Starmer combined. I am a Tory too.

And..... The highest level of infant mortality in the developed world !!!! Honestly W.T.F.

Starmer will do nothing he's said so with his refusal to remove the benefits cap

Sold the starving babies gold for a sweet song.

Biggest mistake this country ever made was putting Cameron / Clegg in instead of this man.

He sold our gold at the bottom of the market and told everyone in advance he was going to do this. This says everything about his competence

The poor gets poorer and poorer, again and again. The rich gets richer and richer. Harsh reality.

Caught on microphone by sky moaning about a racist woman it changed the course of history

Now, that's the type of 'GB' news I could watch and respect all day. A good man.

But the rich still want to take more money from the poor.

The guy eho sold our gold at the bottom of the market and deregulated financial services to the point of half of large banks needing a bail out...

How about stop giving money away to wars

ahhh yes Gordon Brown... the guy who sold our gold reserves at an all time low, and taxed pension funds massively. Notice he says how he has "observed" poverty and not "experienced" poverty. He is merely campaigning for the labour party.

Gordon Brown made a vow to the Scottish people in 2014, when he was in no position to make it, He lied British ministers lie and they wondeer why Scots want out. He may be shocked and ashamed and so he should be. Thanks for nothing Gordy!

And yet sunak doesn't talk about this much I wonder why 🤔🤔

Housing costs are the biggest expense …….house prices tripled from 1997 to 2007. Well done Gordon for addressing this poverty problem, but please take into account what happened under your watch ……..

Articulate, principled, intelligent, and even at the end managed to be genuinely funny. Oh, for his like back.

15 Million immigrants has raised housing costs increasing poverty! Net zero increasing energy costs increasing poverty. So basically Labour policies increasing poverty.

Oh i forgot this. The 50p rise he gave to the pensioners. Yes some of us have memories gordon.

A decent man compared to our modern politicians.

The guy who sold gold reserve for peanuts !

Anyone remember the EXACT moment we were all doomed? Remember Gordon being caught calling the woman a biggot. They just pounced on that one.

If only he had been prime minister - he would have sorted all these problems out. Oh! Wait a minute!!

"Nobody is safe until everybody is safe" ..gordon brown...during the covid pandemic!

I think Brown obscene 😡

Yeah, hire more security, so stupid. How about take care and pay a correspondent salary to people who likes to live here instead of giving subside to terrorists????

He was a chancellor and a PM already. I think we know what he is capable of. Remember, his government brought us EHRC and unlimited Muslim migration, financial crisis, -30% on property prices, bailouts of 3 banks, huge increase in the national debt, all inflicted by deregulation brought by the chancellor.

Tbh, the average person in this country opposes things that would increase productivity.

Maybe if Brown hadn't turned the UK into a property profit paradise, we would be living in a more just society.

Why are we supposed to listen to someone who failed miserably.

Super-Man Sunak ''We are better off now than ever before, Stick to the plan- It's working'' He said

This is the bloke who produced more rules than anyone . SICK.

pity we didnt have a gold reserve to help us out ..

This is what Tories and their voters want. Let's hope it doesn't get worse under Labour

tory presenter who respects Cameron is concerned about poverty. She's probably on 200 000k

listen to that.....common sense that our government are sorely missing. well said sir

I find it hard people can't afford shampoo and soap. I don't have money but i go to poudland wher uou can get shampoos and conditioner just as good as the brand names.

The man who 'ended boom and bust' but led us into a recession; the man who sold our gold reserves at eye wateringly low prices, should not be commenting on anything to do with Politics. Worst prime minster we ever had, and that's saying something.

Has the PFI debt been paid off yet?

The country would be a better place if Gordon Brown was in power Due to the fact he has a heart, compassion, empathy , intelligence & Experience Unlike the incompetent , callous amateurs we have running the country now !

I stopped giving to #Foodbanks when I learnt that "workers" get first pick.....AND....Those named as Charity CEOs get to cream off the top 😡

Mr Brown 👋👋👋👋👋

The corruption of the Tories is mind blowing , the theft through the energy and utilities and financial sector means the elites will face retribution .

The real face of the World beating UK

If there weren’t so many absent fathers this would help

right pm in wrong time

Well, if his buddy Tony hadn't opened the borders, the country might be in a better financial position to do something about it. But if so much of the welfare bill is going to housing migrants, what on earth does he expect? Agreed that little has been done about this in the last 14 years, but Tony's ruination of the constitution and the poltiticisation of the civil service put the boot into any efforts made.

Even though gordon brown has one eye he can see way more issues in this country than rishi sunak

His mate Blair will make it worse

This is the man who sold all the gold reserves of this country, no wonder the country is in this state.

Ban online gambling now.

Just use some of the countries gold reserves. Oh, wait. I forgot Gordon sold half of it off cheap for his rich friends to profit.

Thanks to the sick minded Tories ..austerity,, Cameron kick started it all !

There’s always money for chums, sorry, wars

This man stole money from pensioners when he was Chancellor.

Meanwhile we got Abduls living in 4 star hotels with our tax payer money.

This man was the best pm for the last 25 years

Come back Gordon' brown ( if only) this ex primi ester actually get s it and cares 😮 I think life was better back when he was in power ! 💪

We need people like him in power.

If only he hadn't sold our gold reserves on the cheap. Sorry shouldn't mention that.

Were paying more where is the money going?

Let me guess. Donations will be made to the charity of choice, who will take 90% of the money in “administration costs” including paying consultants to go out and ring the alarm bells for the media.

growing up in the 60s I used to miss meals because my dad went to the pub with the money

Can't believe this is happening in UK, a rich country. Labour government has to be.

Remember he sold gold making us poorer

We got plenty of money for ukraine/ net zero/ illigal migrants though

Shameful, cruel tories ! 300,000 estimated dead due to tory austerity.

This is all the fault of the conservatives, vote them out!!!

No one should have to live like this

Must of been cold this morning when they DUG him up

This man broke the country. how does that work?

To think that man of this caliber was replaced by someone like David Cameron. And then the other stooges. Each of whom contributing to the UK's further decline. The Tories just keep delivering and delivering over and over again. The UK is way overdue for a GE and a major chsnge.
