British PM snubbed by Madame Tussauds: Gordon Brown’s star is more waning than waxing indeed
Poor Gordon Brown: it never rains but it pours. You get thoroughly trounced in local elections by the Etonian party - and then humiliated by an Etonian mayor of London.
And if that was not enough to stop anyone from waxing lyrically about all things British, some uppity museum managaer decides you might not even be interesting enough to attack with a life size voodoo doll:
Gordon Brown is well-advised to avoid meltdown in his next test of public opinion: it is at Madame Tussauds. The London tourist attraction has asked the public to vote on whether it should create a waxwork of the Prime Minister after Downing Street failed to respond to its request for him to attend a sitting.
“Reflecting the climate after the Government’s performance in the recent local elections, our guests have become decidedly split about whether we should feature Mr Brown at all,” said Edward Fuller, the museum’s general manager.
Yes, when the going gets tough, the tough can’t even get a bloody waxing done.
How the high and mighty have fallen indeed.
