All MPs socialise so I don't see what you are getting at.
I want to know who made millions out of these share trades on HBOS etc but people like yourself are falling for the diversionary spin tactics from Labour.

Basic English.
So Osborne thinks Mandy's despicable, like the rest of us? Oh no, wait he's happy to spend time hanging around with Mandy and some Russian bloke with loads of cash.Comment

If you think that Osborne should be investigated while Mandelson is left alone, that is hypocrisy. Wherever Mandelson is, sleaze is not far away.

Where did I say Mandelson should be left alone? He should be rolled up in a carpet, secured with cable ties and pushed off the back of that Russian geezer's yacht IMHO. I'd still like to know what Osborne thinks he's doing hanging around with the slimy git though. I didn't say there should be an enquiry - as usual you are assuming, on the basis of zero evidence, that I'm following El Gordo's line on this, which I'm not.
Osborne didn't get the cash in any case and it looks to me like he's being stitched up by someone he thought was a pal, but he's showing very poor judgement hanging around with Mandy. As the opinion bit it the Torygraph said, he should have been studying his brief as shadow, not mucking about with dubious characters on yachts.Comment
