FILE - The leader of Britain’s opposition Conservative party David Cameron walks past an image of himself after taking questions following a speech in London, Jan. 4, 2010. When Prime Minister Gordon Brown called the general election for May 2010, Labour, which had been in power for 13 years, its longest stretch in government, did better than expected and denied the Conservative Party, now led by the smooth David Cameron , a majority in the House of Commons.
Though Brown was a hugely driven politician, he lacked the natural flair of his predecessor Blair. The global financial crisis in 2008, which led to the deepest U.K. recession in a century and the state bailout of some of the country’s biggest banks, saw Labour’s popularity took a dive. With social media now part of the broadcast mix, the exchange took a life of its own and Brown was forced to apologize repeatedly.
