Peter Mandelson defiantly not answering the question

The BBC have a short interview with Peter Mandelson on their website, do watch the piece of video at the top of their page. You will hear Peter Mandelson ignoring the questions about whether he discussed aluminium tariffs with Oleg Deripaska and you will see that famous Mandelson thin lipped smile. I wonder if the interviewer, Richard Galpin, will find himself being posted to St Helena soon?

Maybe someone could hold Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown to account for not answering questions that are posed to them. Maybe Jeremy Paxman could summon the tone and persistence he used when famously interrogating Michael Howard. Maybe the BBC could actually do some hard news investigating rather than obsessing about two overpaid pillocks.
