Outrage Block



A problem with the Peter Mandelson debacle is how difficult it is to crank up some outrage, a flicker of surprise or even a raised eyebrow. 

There is one interesting question though - will Keir Starmer try to deny that he appointed Mandelson as Ambassador to the United States?  

Meanwhile the Daily Express has a more important aspect to relate -

In my opinion Mandelson operated as a 'fixer' or vizier who was excused his faults because of his usefulness to the Great and Good.

Once his usefulness ended he became a target for criticism. A lot of criticism.
