You can't say they don't have a sense of humour at the Spectator. George Osborne was presenting their political awards today and he found himself at a table with Peter Mandelson, who won "newcomer of the year".
Iain Dale was there to witness their reconciliation and ConservativeHome has done a live blog of the ceremony, complete with all the winners.
According to the ConservativeHome account, Osborne had a neat joke to disguise his embarrassment.
Newcomer of year is Peter Mandelson. Mr O looks distinctly uncomfortable presenting it! "It's good to be back on board as they say in Corfu," says Lord M accepting.
"For next year's holiday," replies Mr O, "we'll be holidaying in the North Sea off Hartlepool - a place neither of us have visited for a long time."
end
Don't take my word for it - read it yourself!

The audacity of Mandelson is beyond belief......he does what he does and WE don't matter.....or rather, his Rothschild masters (or is it 'family'.....) speak and he jumps.
I actually saw a video of the "award" on a late night AlBeeba prog last night so there'll be a video available soon, can't find one for now....or was I dreaming - who knows these days lol!
ps - Title should read 'Awarded' - can't get the typists these days lol!! I was too busy trying to fit a title in the space provided.....sigh
