Tony Blair

RBS went bankrupt because it had expanded into the US and was brought down by the US subprime crisis, i.e. it owned US companies with exposure to sub-prime mortgages.

I don't see how a British government could have prevented that, other than to make it illegal to do business in the US, which would in itself precipitated a crisis of a different type.

Plus their acquisition of ABN AMRO, in no small part. The stupidity of that was self-evident well before the US subprime crisis.

I like Blair, made a mistake with a failed war and a bit of a god botherer but still he was successful.

We are saying sign up to Open Britain, give us some money and help us campaign against this Brexit at all costs,” Mandelson said , referring to the pro-European campaign group set up after the EU referendum.

He's a slippery one. I managed to watch about two minutes of him on Marr. As soon as he said words to the affect that only 37% of the public voted for Brexit it was time to switch off.

Correct. Politicians are very good at that. He never mentioned that only 35% of the public voted against Brexit.

The old man and I always thought he was made of Teflon .

We always used to say, "Here's Mandelson crawling back from under his stone", after a period of time had elapsed since his last corruption / scandal.
Always thought he had a lot of insider knowledge of Tone, hence the Teflon "invincibility"

FFS! The idiot Blair made him a minister twice, and he was sacked/resigned twice. He was then brought back as a Lord! Makes you really wonder what it is that Blair sees in the slimy little 5h1t.

"The Lord Mandelson, denied the opportunity to become Foreign Secretary by the sad combination of a Prime Minister too weak to remove his Foreign Secretary and, equally, a Foreign Secretary too weak to challenge the Prime Minister, has gone around instead collecting titles and even whole Departments to add to his name. His title now adds up to, “The right hon. the Baron Mandelson of Foy in the county of Herefordshire and Hartlepool in the county of Durham, First Secretary of State, Lord President of the Privy Council and Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills”. It would be no surprise to wake up in the morning and find that he had become an archbishop—[Laughter]. That is exactly what happened with Cardinal Wolsey."
