Not our Ted, but TED. Speaking about global ethics and global citizenship!, that's a nice communist ideal from the madman of number 10. Just uploaded to TED but filmed in July, perhaps they were embarrassed as well to put it online back then.

They have had some really interesting talks, some whackos but never an idiot.

Perhaps he's achieved some kind of ironic cult status amongst the TED lot.

It's possibly like when Oxford and Cambridge universities continue to ask Jim Bowen back to be a guest speaker at their unions. They're really just taking the piss.

I was first sent the clip where he tells his amusing story and I thought to myself, "blimey Mike MacIntyre has let himself go", then I realised it was the national idiot himself.

No fking way.

Normally they have the brightest of the brightest, the inspirational and the captivating.

Where the 'effing hell does Gordon fking Brown fit in.

Does anyone, ANYONE on the World Stage give a flying fk what that man has to say.
