British News

Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown, wearing a Sky News microphone, speaks to local resident Gillian Duffy, 65, while campaigning for Britain's May 6 General Election in Rochdale, England, Wednesday April 28, 2010. Brown was caught on microphone describing a voter he had just spoken to - apparently Duffy - as a 'bigoted woman'. The comments were made as he got into his car, not realising that he had the microphone pinned to his jacket. He told an aide: 'That was a disaster - they should never have put me with that woman. Whose idea was that? It's just ridiculous...' Asked what she had said, he replied: 'Everything, she was just a bigoted woman.'(AP Photo< Lewis Whyld-pa) **UNITED KINGDOM OUT: NO SALES: NO ARCHIVE:**AP - Britain's Prime Minister blundered into the first major gaffe in his country's short campaign season Wednesday when an open microphone captured him slamming a voter he'd just been trying to win over.
