Never read anything like it.

Poor kid if it's one of his. Bloody well done though - good to see an entitled, arrogant white man get their comeuppance.

Wow!

He really is a sleazy creep.

The ages of some mentioned, so young😬

Definitely reads like a group effort.

Or someone disguising their style of writing.

Show quote history

Lest we forget, Dan was Gossip Girl.

And Penelope was Lady Whistledown...

@RedToothBrush re best man 😱🤣

Whoever wrote this email has serious rage

Think it's a teen who is incandescent with rage.

Oh yes, hadn't thought of a group effort. It's a possibility.

The best man will have some wonderful last minute material

sunshinesupermum · 07/07/2023 15:14

Teenager - possibly the daughter from his first marriage? Assuming she and her brother were invited and thus know who is on the guest list?

MrsRachelDanvers · 07/07/2023 15:15

He can’t have done it, he was in Pizza Express at the time.

SmoothSeasDoNotMakeGoodSailors · 07/07/2023 15:18

But how would his teenage daughter, if it is her, know who he is shagging and the age of them? That's just bizarre. Mind you it all is a bit!

Libelula21 · 07/07/2023 15:19

It’s actually a massive security risk. All that kompromat - email doesn’t even mention his cocaine habit - and he went straight from a senior job in Cabinet to working directly to Lebedev.

storminamooncup · 07/07/2023 15:28

I've only come across parts of it. Don't know if its true or not but either way, its pretty nasty to do that just before someone's wedding. like the day before. Why now? What's the motive? (not a supporter of George, but the timing is unkind)

The writing is dreadful. My bet’s on a teenager - a child of his or one of the other women / men that these two seem to have rattled through. If it’s an adult then they’re unhinged with anger (and rather than be horrified as they were at Alice Evans everyone’s lapping it up🤷🏼‍♀️). Nowt so queer as folk! I have no doubt they’ve both behaved dreadfully but the ‘evidence’ presented here on lots of the points is very flimsy - a lot of innuendo and hearsay. Christ, tomorrow will be a difficult day for them!

HIs older children are not teenagers, they are Uni grad age and are academic achievers so not sure dreadful writing is their style.

Maybe best not to speculate about probably-innocent parties.

I don’t think either of the Osborne children would write anything badly unless they were trying to disguise themselves. Liberty is super super bright & has won writing competitions, Luke is v able too. Both now in their 20s unless Liberty has a very late summer birthday.

George has never cared about being unkind. I have no sympathy.

They could've given the info to a friend to write.

Yes Liberty debated for the motion of a The New Era of Porn at Oxford. Only Fans empowers.

All roads lead to Luke.

Qbish · 07/07/2023 15:51

I have to say, if you'd written this development in a novel it would have been dismissed as schlocky and very unlikely. It's all a bit Jilly Cooper, isn't it? If she'd done a big novel on Westminster.

HaveYouHeardOfARoadAtlas · 07/07/2023 15:52

Whether it is or isn’t one of his kids I hope he isn’t raging at them, accusing them of doing it.

HaveYouHeardOfARoadAtlas · 07/07/2023 15:54

I think it’s someone who works for him. Even his kids wouldn’t have all the email addresses, though I accept it could be bollocks that it’s been emailed to all…..maybe just emailed to the press.

TeenLifeMum · 07/07/2023 15:56

It reads like some AI has been involved to cover writing style.

The guy is a knob - I had to deal with him professionally but my job means I can’t reveal details but top knob covers it.

George Osborne reportedly won’t rest until Theresa May “is chopped up in bags in my freezer”

If man on the Clapham Omnibus had said that, he would be categorised as a psychopath, and hopefully put on some sort of watch list.

Did he really say that?! 😱
