A lot of people (including politicians) are saying that Gordon Brown is dyslexic, I wonder if it is true?

I've heard that.  It was mentioned back when Obama gave him a stupid gift.

Was it? Perhaps it could be true then, I'll have a look at older articles. If it is the case that he is dyslexic, then this article is really bad. Picking on the blind dyslexic man for his poor quality writing.

I think so... i've read it before and I don't remember many other times reading about Gordon Brown.


All I can find though is an event from earlier this year when apparently the Labour MP said Dyslexia was made up.

Was he insane?

"The education establishment, rather than admit that their eclectic and incomplete methods for instruction are at fault, have invented a brain disorder called dyslexia," said the MP.

Seriously?

I guess he was doing it to attack what he saw as overfunding of it or something... I don't know... but Labor is supposed to be the left wing major party you have?  WTF?

Dyslexics can read... it's just a lot harder... and it's hard to fake the spelling errors dyslexics make.
