Dear All
Politics is a very dirty business.
George Osborne makes the press because of his association with Natalie Rowe.
Natalie Rowe is an ex-escort agency boss and dominatrix.
George Osborne knows her.
Miss Rowe gave an interview on Australian television and despite being half way around the world, the contents of the interview have made it back to Britain.
She alleges that she had taken drugs with Mr Osborne in the early 1990s.
The claims surfaced in 2005 and have been denied by the Chancellor but he doesn’t deny he knows her.
And with the phone hacking raging like mad, she has suggested that may have been the latest victim of the phone-hacking scandal.
Police say that her details had been found on a notebook belonging to the News of the World’s private investigator, Glenn Mulcaire.
Ed Miliband has used this information to have a dig at Osborne prompting Downing Street to him making jokes “beneath him”.
Mr Miliband made his thinly-veiled reference to the allegations in the House of Commons during Prime Minister’s Questions.
He said:
“The message to all those people who have lost jobs is the Prime Minister is not going to change course,”
Adding:
“The Chancellor of the Exchequer has lashed himself to the mast ... not for the first time, perhaps.”
George Osborne remained stony-faced as laughter erupted in the chamber.
Number 10 sources said the Prime Minister thought the joke “was beneath the leader of the Opposition”.
That is a matter of subjective opinion.
In life you happen to run across people from all walks of life, some good, some bad, but it doesn’t mean you condone their activities such as Miss Rowe.
People will live the way they want to life to help them survive, we shouldn’t be too judgmental.
Ed Miliband managed to get a laugh at Osborne’s expense however such behaviour is a double edged sword, one day, it will be Miliband sitting stony-faced as someone takes to the lectern to deliver him a complete and thorough ass whipping.
It will probably hurt a lot more than if done by a dominatrix as Tory MPs tend to be less sophisticated.
For them, the lash must be used to the bone.
On that day, Ed Miliband will experience real pain.
Yours sincerely

I thought as many others it was funny
as for Camerons comment when has he acted anything remotely like a British Prime minister (and not the representative of the Tory voting SE of England)
