MCGEE ATTACKS BRITISH GOVERNMENT

Music mogul ALAN MCGEE has launched a furious attack on the British government, insisting Prime Minister GORDON BROWN is unfit to rule the country.
The former Creation Records boss, who discovered Britpop legends Oasis in the early 1990s, has turned on the ruling Labour Party and called for it to be kicked out of office.
MCGee was famously pictured alongside Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher when they were invited to a reception by the newly-elected Prime Minister Tony Blair in 1997.
But the lifelong Labour Party supporter has launched a stunning broadside against under-fire British leader Brown - branding him "terrible", an "idiot", and accusing him of letting down Britain.
Speaking to U.K. newspaper The Sun, MCGee says: "I joined the party in 1994 when I still believed in Socialism. I thought we were going to change the world... I naively thought we were going to get a cross between (former British Prime Ministers) Jim Callaghan and Harold Wilson... Twelve years later we've just ended up with corporate politics. It's time to get rid of these idiots.
"The Labour Party is unfit to govern and we need a change... Brown is an intellectual unable to make up his mind about anything. He looks terrible... Brown looks like he needs a three-year holiday in the Bahamas. The poor guy is in above his head. The kindliest thing we could do is vote him out now."
