George Osborne. A 'cad and a bounder!!'

I always thought Osborne was a bit slimy. He really should have been a bit more careful and exposed himself to this. And yet in the debate about Party donations the Tories still insist on lumping in Union donations (the cleanest and transparent donations) with reform as Peter Lilley did on Newsnight last night. It is clear to everyone by this incident with Osborne that when rubbing shoulders with the stinking rich it conjures up more sinister and devious influences that should be controlled.
