Whatsis name?

It was never hard to figure out what to call Tony Blair. He rapidly became Tone, TB,Blare or Bliar.
However, Gordon Brown is altogether more interesting in the nomenclature department.
We already have Gordo, Clunker, Clunking Fist, Broon ( ah, takes one back to Oor Wullie), son of the manse,GB, Vader and now - dah dah - Flash Gordon. I particularly like this last. He of the flashing smile - makes grown men weep.
I'm sure there will be others ( NuKnox springs to mind, playing on the Presbiterian theme) but I'm equally sure that despite the paens of praise that have been heaped on him, he won't have changed one bit from the dour, dull control freek he is.
