POLITICIANS really don't like saying sorry, do they? It was obviously essential for the Conservatives to get George Osborne back into play on economic policy issues after a silence of several days. So yesterday he offered some carefully drafted words about the Oleg Deripaska affair in the hope that he would then be able to draw a line under it. I neither asked for money nor received any and I didn't break any rules Mr Osborne told the BBC, repeating a formula he first used a few days ago. So what is the fuss about? Apparently that I did make a mistake and it didn't look very good. I regret that. But what was the mistake if he did not break any rules? Apparently it was to become involved in a discussion about a donation.
MR OSBORNE REGRETS
