More quotes by Gordon Brown
So another challenge for our generation is to create global institutions that reflect our ideas of fairness and responsibility, not the ideas that were the basis of the last stage of financial development over these recent years.
Gordon Brown
56,000 companies have already benefited from the schemes that we have brought in. If we have taken the advice of the Conservative Party, no money would have been used. As Barack Obama said only yesterday, doing nothing is not an option.
Gordon Brown

Gordon Brown
Sometimes it takes a crisis for people to agree that what is obvious and should have been done years ago, can no longer be postponed. We must create a new international financial architecture for the global age.
Gordon Brown
Our mission is, in truth, historic and world changing - to build, over the next fifty years and beyond, a global low carbon economy. And it is not overdramatic to say that the character and course of the coming century will be set by how we measure up to this challenge
Gordon Brown
Britain does not want a return to boom and bust.
Gordon Brown
What has become clear is that Britain cannot trust the Conservatives to run the economy. Everyone knows that I'm all in favour of apprenticeships, but let me tell you this is no time for a novice.
Gordon Brown
I understand that in the UK there have already been 10,000 complaints from viewers about these remarks, which people see, rightly, as offensive. I want Britain to be seen as a country of fairness and tolerance. Anything detracting from this I condemn.
Gordon Brown
[They] should never have put me with that woman. ... She was just a sort of bigoted woman who said she used to be Labour.
Gordon Brown
No one should be held back from realising their potential by fears that they will not be able to afford to go to university or that they will graduate with unmanageable levels of debt.
Gordon Brown
America knows it has got to deal with its deficit problems so that it, too, can promise it is making its proper and best contributions to the world economy.
Gordon Brown
I'm a father that's what matters most. Nothing matters more.
Gordon Brown
The vision of personalised public services - meeting the individual needs of all our citizens - requires continuing reform in the way services are delivered
Gordon Brown
I hope the Spice Girls will come back, although it may be beyond even Bob Geldof to get that to happen.
