When Nick Robinson points out Peter Mandelson's lie, then you know change is in the air

Listen to Peter Mandelson's interview with Jim Naughtie on the Today programme this morning. Then read Nick Robinson's blog where he points out where he believes Peter Mandelson misinformed the nation. You might also like to count the number of times and number of ways that Peter Mandelson manges not to admit to the possibility of "cuts".

It is odd that it is Peter Mandelson who is wheeled out to talk about Labour government policy in the economic sphere and not Alistair Darling or Gordon Brown. Maybe it is because Peter Mandelson has even fewer scruples than the PM and his Chancellor.
