Gordon Brown: "I am impatient … as charged"

In an interview for today's Guardian, Gordon Bown says the Conservatives are stumbling. "The one thing we have learned from the start of the year is that this policy-a-day blitz from the Conservative party has ended up with us having the Conservatives literally publish their manifesto in separate sections and no new policy has resulted.

"Show me a soldier who has made no mistakes and I will show you a soldier who has won no battles."

"What is this big idea of the Conservative party? It seems to be inheritance tax cuts, it seems to be anti-European and it seems to reject the big reforms we need in economic policy, it seems to be opposing what we did over the recession. I have yet to see this case for change based on new ideas."
