This will make you sick: George Osborne takes up academic job building on skills ‘as statesman and leader’

Last Updated: January 31, 2017By

He was a part-time Chancellor and now he’s a part-time backbencher. George Osborne would much rather rake it in with part-time jobs elsewhere, now that he’s done as much harm has he could to the British people.

George Osborne is to take up an academic fellowship at the institution established by John McCain, the main Republican foe of Donald Trump, where the former chancellor will be asked to “build on his skills as a statesman and leader”.

Osborne has become the first Kissinger Fellow at the McCain Institute for International Leadership, the institute said. While it is based in McCain’s home state of Arizona, Osborne will remain in the UK.

    Statesman and Leader? He was just a grubby hypocritical politician.

    Skills as a statesman and leader!!!! Havn6t seen any evidence of either in his time of office unless you call sitting in the Commons with a slimy expression statesmanlike.

    Oh dear, is he planning to come back and finish us all off? He will get in with the help of all the Tory idiots I think who vote without a thought for others.
