Father’s Day: Gordon Brown is the worst dressed
celebrity dad
Gordon Brown will have little to celebrate this Father’s
Day. He’s come bottom in a poll to find the UK’s
best dressed celebrity dad.
Our PM in waiting scored a miserable 0.3% of votes
cast, in the Fathers Day poll run by the UK’s
leading online tie retailer TieWarehouse.co.uk.
Tony Blair comfortably beat Gordon, landing in 5th
place.
David Beckham won the title for the second year running,
after getting nearly 39% of votes cast
Tie Warehouse’s Gary Baker said Gordon may need
to address this image problem if he is going to win
the hearts of voters.
He said: “Whatever you think of his politics,
it’s clear the public don't consider him a snappy
dresser!
“Although he didn’t win our poll, we’re
going to send him some of our most stylish ties and
accessories so he can spice up his image. He’s
going to be the PM, so we may as well help him try to
look the part.”
The full results are:
· David Beckham 38.8%
· Stephen Gerrard 32.6%
· GMTV’s Ben Shephard 6.2%
· Jude Law 6.2%
· Tony Blair 4.2%
· Clive Owen 3.7%
· Gordon Ramsey 2.8%
· Peter Andre 2.5%
· Jonathan Ross 2.5%
· Gordon Brown 0.3%
Gary added: “We’ll see how well Gordon
has changed his image in next year’s poll. Hopefully
he will have managed to drag himself off the bottom
slot!”
