Just watched him getting torn to shreds by Jeff Randall on Sky News. It was genuinely embarrassing.

Cameron should have ditched him long, long ago.

    I don't even know who Osborne is ... as for Jeff Randall, isn't he the living one in Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)?

    He's your possible future Chancellor.

    You should pray that never happens.

    Osbourne is a <ahem> friend of Camerons. It has been an open secret in Westminster for years. There was a hell of a fuss when Osbourne went on a boating holiday with Mandelson, everyone was laughing about it during PM questions (much better than governing the country, reducing taxes, that sort of thing). Anyway Cameron forgave after Osbourne went down on his knees as it were, and Mandelson is going to take his next holiday in Brazil.

    Actually, having just read Osbourne's Wiki entry, I am inclined to agree. What an oik.

    I can't believe I am going to vote Tory tomorrow after reading that. Although I am.

    Oi. Please leave Osborne alone. He's a man of the £multi-million people.
