Gordon Brown was a miserable man, says ex-sound technician

Finlay Morton, who worked as a sound technician for three British prime ministers, including Gordon Brown, has revealed that Brown was a pretty miserable man.

The father-of-three asserted that working for Brown was wretched, and he gave the impression that he looked down on everybody, the Daily Express reported.

Morton recalled that once he had wired Brown with a radio mic and asked him to remember that the broadcast was live so he should remember to keep his words in check.

Morton, 52, said that Brown acted as if he didn't exist and didn't take any notice because if he had, he might not have been heard calling a pensioner a 'bigoted woman' at the last election.
