William Hague's special advisor resigns

[Tony]

I don't think that I blamed Mandelson for anything did I? I merely postulated that all is not what was being discussed and that there is a story behind the press story.

 

Is that so ridiculous?

[crookesey]

In what sense, I would not want to sleep in the same room as someone else, and think is demeaning.

A barracks yes, or a ward.

But a twin room, no way matey.

 

Don't worry about it flower, you can't help what you are.

Not only does your memory fail you but your powers of deduction are a bit iffy too.

 

Care to answer the two other points from the same post (the points/questions you have ignored):

 

 

What do you have against homosexuals?

 

OK. Show me one post of mine where I have ever said I care one way or the other about what people do to each other in private. Go on. Just the one. When you've not been able to, I expect an apology.

 

Why would you care if Hague was gay?

 

Where did I say I did?

[mj.scuba]

I would rather sleep in a chair in the lobby, or even in my car.

 

Why would you do that if there is a perfectly comfortable bed available?

Are you frightened what you might get up to?

Not everyone would be/is happy sharing a room with someone more than half his/her age.

 

Is that too difficult a concept to grasp?

Erm, yes it is actually. I wouldn't see it as a problem. It's only a problem if you make it a problem, perhaps if you think there is something titilating or sexual about it. Obviously that is when you opt to sleep on a chair in reception or in your car.

Why? Look what's happened to WH this week (though there was, apparently, nothing "going on").

That's your perogative. Though I would, especially if my employer was the one paying for the accomodation.

Or until the press get hold of it and make it more than what it is (a little like this week's episode of "Conservative Street").

 

Obviously that is when you opt to sleep on a chair in reception or in your car.

 

Not everyone feels the same though (especially some of the older generation).

So is that his fault, or the ones that are making it out to be something it isn't? Personally I think he should have kept his mouth shut because he had nothing to apologise for, but I can see why he'd want to put an end to lurid allegations.

You may not have a problem but others might perceive one, Michael Jackson’s intentions may have been wholly innocent but they got him into a lot of trouble didn’t they.

It's his own fault, for putting himself in a position where people may have thought something else was going on.

He's hardly made the situation better for himself.

 

but I can see why he'd want to put an end to lurid allegations.

 

Many senior Tories think otherwise.
