Hilarious! Brown is absolutely hopeless!
Of the four balls hit to him, he failed with all four of his 'returns' - 1) Net 2) Missed ball 3) Missed ball 4) Hit out - missed table. Shocking!
As Iain Dale asks, which adviser thought a game of table tennis with Harry Redknapp was a good idea in front of the Sky News cameras?
Dale goes too easy on the PM excusing his poor performance due to the fact that he has sight in only one eye. That's rubbish! He struggled to hit the ball because he was just plain crap! I would have been more successful if I had both my eyes shut!
I'm amazed Brown went for it. A year ago, almost to the day, Brown bottled a game of table tennis with Chinese Premier Wen.
The Guardian reported: "Ping-pong diplomacy hit a new low today as Gordon Brown ducked out of a table tennis challenge from the Chinese prime minister. The British PM, who is blind in one eye, politely declined a quick knockabout with Wen Jiabao as the two watched exhibition matches between young British table tennis hopefuls and their Chinese counterparts. Prime minister Wen told Brown: 'Actually, I do want to play a table tennis match with you.' The two men walked over to the tables and for one brief moment it appeared the contest between them might actually happen. But instead Brown walked to a microphone to announce a new scheme of partnership between young Chinese athletes and their British colleagues, who would work and train together on a 'buddy' system."
After today's performance, now we know why he bottled it!
