My mum saw Brown today.

In the very flesh. He was at the Asda next to where she works and she'd come out when she saw something was going on. Really gutted that I wasn't there :( although my mum has no idea what was happening and didn't see any press. Gonna have a search round local news sites now and see why he was knocking about.

Ah this was why he was in Leeds http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/Brown-opens-39model39-Leeds-school.4743494.jp

Fuck knows what he was doing at Asda though, it's way across the city, maybe he was stopping in for refreshment.

Found the answer

Earlier on in the day, the Prime Minster visited staff at the HBOS head office in Halifax before opening Allerton High School in Leeds and then starting his Christmas shopping and checking on his VAT reduction in an ASDA store in Leeds.

Quite amused at the arrogance involved in popping in to check out your own VAT reductions
