In his D-Day commemoration speech, Gordon Brown apparently referred to Omaha Beach as Obama Beach.

What a plank.

Mandelson won't be pleased. ;)

Sky reporting Brown apparently booed when he turned up at Arramanches for parade.

BBC reporting that he has been welcomed. ::)

No he was definately booed, and quite rightly so.

He's a disgrace and a laughing stock.

I did notice that Sarkozy got cheered loudly when he got out of his car on arrival at the American Cemetary.
