How Mandelson isn't in jail just beggars belief.
Lord as well....... he knows where some skeletons are I bet.How Mandelson isn't in jail just beggars belief.
From what I have he doesn't intend to return to frontline politics and acknowledges that he couldn't get support for that. The point he is making is that we have a divided country after the Brexit vote and the centre ground needs to come together, centre ground non Corbyn Labour and non UKIP Conservative. Instead of a knee jerk rant why not read what he's said and think about it.

Perhaps they can adopt him.
As attractive as the thought of finally ridding the country of that smug self-serving muppit and his eViL bint wife is....Haven't we done enough in the past to harm / not help the Poles?
It appears to me, on minimal research I admit, that this prick thinks he can swan back into British politics and use his own and foreign money to sort out all our problems by putting a stop to Brexit.
Just look how well things ended after his 12 years as an elected leader, then extrapolate that to how 'good' it will be for the average person if he running around like some demigod pedalling his influence to the highest bidder.
The more than passing resemblance between the Bliars and the Clintons is worrying is it not?

He wants to stop Brexit, usurpe the democratic will of the electorate. If you think he is posturing as he is for other than his own ends, then you truly are off your chump. Hosenbugler said:

Exactly.We all know that lobbyists make even more money than politicians that take directorships.
And money is all he has ever really cared about, aside from his desire to be seen/remembered as an 'elder statesman'.
Smarmy tt.

Ah yes, Mr "we don't need these legacy industries" Trade Secretary just as he signed UK steelmaking's future down the EU toilet bowl...How Mandelson isn't in jail just beggars belief.

All the noise is just coming form a relativly small number of the arrogant and anti democratic and those who risk having their snouts knocked out their respective troughs. The vast majority of people have accepted the referenda result, and are getting on with their lives.
At the end of the day, you have no "point" to make , all you have is weak anti democratic excuses icluding scaremongering to try and usurp the will of the electorate. Thats the fact of the matter. Scaremongering appears not to work too well.

That remains to be seen. Much stranger things have happened. We don't have to look far back in time to see dishonest MPs making comebacks. (Not that I'm suggesting Blair is dishonest of course, merely pointing out an 'in extremis' example.)
Some people even want some patently dishonest MPs to lead parties. Now that to me is strange.
It does seem to be the case that many people, even quite intelligent ones, actually like being lied to. They know they're being lied to, but they rationalise it as "well they all do that", all the while clinging to whatever particular lie is most comforting to them. Very odd.Some people even want some patently dishonest MPs to lead parties. Now that to me is strange.

I don't think you need to be afraid of suggesting he's dishonest. I don't think there's any doubt on that score......
