The Ballad of George and Gordo

New British Prime Minister is going to pay homage, I mean a visit, to Captain Codpiece this weekend at Camp David. Today's Guardian polls some people in the public arena and asks them what Gordon should say to Bush. My synopsis:
"Red" Ken Livingstone - Mayor of London: "Stop being such a prat!"

Clive Stafford-Smith - lawyer: "Have you ever heard of Martin Luther King Jr.?"

Martha Nussbaum - professor of law and ethics: "You've got daughters. Sort it out will you?"

Shami Chakrabarti - director of Liberty: "Which word in 'human rights' don't you understand?"

George Monbiot - environmentalist: "If your grandchildren live in a horrible word you do know it will be your fault don't you?"

Anne Weyman - Family Planning Association: "And on abortion...you're not listening to me are you?"
