Under Labour we have just become so used to sleaze, that nobody seems to care any more when Mandelson is reappointed to the cabinet for the third time.
It is so sad that Britain has sunk to this level.Comment

Do you really think a billionaire like this guy is going to befriend someone like Mandleson because he just "enjoys his company"?
What did they talk about? do you think the subject of Aluminium tarriffs was subjugated in favour of conversations about Ukrainian totty, Footy, Music, Shakepeare? Or do you think that maybe they found a common bond in a harmless pursuit of say Scrabble or something?
Exactly the same applies to George Osbourne though the difference being that Osbourne has'nt (yet) anything to offer as he is not (yet) in power.
If these people need friends why dont they just sign up to CUK?Last edited by DodgyAgent; 27 October 2008, 22:33.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

Daily mail got more details on that visit - apparently Mandelson somehow avoided having to receive Russian visa, nothing suprising that he got through though - it does not take THAT high level Russian figure to get this done, however the irony is that effectively Mandelson was in Russia illegallyComment

Did he ever deny being there ? I wonder if Mandelson will apologise, or should we just put him straight into prison for corruption.Comment
