This is a poorly written book by a writer who obviously dislikes Peter Mandelson. l would like to speak up for 'Mandy'. l consider Peter Mandelson to be one of the finest human beings to have ever walked the planet. The man is a Colossus of truth and altruism, without an avaricious bone in his body. He is also the least creepy person you could ever meet. l would go as far as to say that he ranks alongside Alastair Campbell and Richard III as the greatest Englishmen ever. The man is a Saint. l would trust him with my life and the lives of my family. Shame on you Paul Routledge for daring to cast doubt on this wonderful man's integrity.
