Gordon Brown has just been appointed as the adviser to the WEF or World Economic Forum, which is the extravagant group which conducts their yearly meeting in the very high-profile and glitzy Swiss ski resort of Davos.

The WEF is a not-for-profit organization that is based in Geneva, Switzerland. This is also considered as the assembly of the global economy’s big cheeses. The objective of the World Economic Forum is “improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas”.

Mr. Brown is said to head a new Policy and Initiatives Co-ordination Board, although the people still can not forget the blunder in the Commons.

This new responsibility, however, is sort of voluntary, meaning Mr. Brown will be unpaid for everything, except for the fact that WEF will financially support Mr. Brown’s staff expenses.

People are taken aback with this turn of events, since Mr. Brown is a known man who not only deepened the deficit, but also broke into the pension funds, sold some of the gold reserves and made the British tax system into a perplexing web, is now enjoying this very prestigious position.
