"The guy was a jumped up self important tart"
When A8 says stuff like that, it's gotta hurt...

He obviously needed to take some of George Osborne's calming medication & have floated through the whole encounter.

This whole thing is a huge waste of money.
Even if he called him a pleb(which he probably did), who really gives a shit. If he's that precious that he's been called a fucking "pleb" then he's in the wrong profession.
Should have been dealt with quickly.
Pm: "did you call him a pleb? Don't do it again. Just say sorry and it will all be forgotten"
how much vital money has been wasted on this?
The whole thing is ridiculous

Cameron should have sacked him on day 2. It took too long!

Mitchell has always been known as an arrogant cunt. That's why Cameron dropped him so quickly.

It's a massive lesson in how to show some humility.
If Mitchell had apologised on day one and not dug his heels in he would have been much better off as would have been the party.
Instead he behaved like a spoilt teenager.

What's poor old IDS done wrong? He always seems a decent, principled man to me. Oh, is it something to do with him reviewing benefits?

Mellor has been a dickhead for years. Why anyone was surprised about his behaviour was beyond me. There's just no helping some people. He's welcome to goto ukip too.

Over 2 years that is easily possible. I don't suppose he went to a local firm either, so you're probably looking at £500 an hour at least..

As usual the real winners were the lawyers and silks.
Interesting though that the judge still thinks that on the balance of probabilities Mitchell used the pleb term.

As well as this, Mellor made a cunt of himself this week.
Some nasty little Tories getting their come uppance.
IDS next please, followed by Galloway and then Livingstone and Abbott for Labour please.

Got what he deserved. He should have left it well alone. The guy was a jumped up self important tart who should never have ever been given the chief whips job.
Hopefully he'll do us all a favour and retire at the general.
