Was this really the best picture they could find for their main story?

EDIT: I'd like to point out the main story/pic has now changed...

hmmm.

Sinque · 10 Nov 2008 at 14:48

You try find a nice picture of Brown

Greebo · 10 Nov 2008 at 14:48

Has he been on the bottle again? LMAO at that picture

V4NT0M · 10 Nov 2008 at 14:49

lol he looks half cut, also I love the almost oxymoronic wording of the headline.

Impossible

The UK, the US and Europe are key to establishing a new world order, he will argue.

Ha.

Much better.

They don't have to make the bloke look like an absolute pullock.

I could do the same for most people regarding photos.

the BBC are just moronic...no wait...all NEWS sites are moronic.

looks like a good leader, very intelligent looking.

I think it's deliberate personally.

I dont care what he announces as long as he gets of the retrospective portion of the retarded new road tax rules.

Or makes special lanes for those of us who will now have to pay eleventybillion quid a year, becuase clearly we contribute 4 times as much as a Clio driver so we deserve good roads without the cheap tax cars in the way

V4NT0M · 10 Nov 2008 at 14:53

Lol how old [young] is he in that pic!

No idea, but still

There are plenty of pictures of him not in the pose they have used, they just deliberately used it.

stumpy187 · 10 Nov 2008 at 14:57

Fair enough, thought you where going to tell me you drive a Huowge 4x4 or something

buy an older car, you'll miss dodge the tax rules then...unless they're changing them as well

Yeah, the BBC used to do that a lot, although they have toned it down a bit of late I've noticed.

All of the BBC news website articles have pictures and captions that ever so subtley take the ****. Has no one else noticed? (Wonders if going mad....)
