Transcript
00:00We now know that Peter Mandelson failed the security vetting. That looks like the process
00:05was working fine. What isn't working is the prime minister. He blames everyone except himself. He
00:12sacked the cabinet secretary. He sacked his chief of staff. And after each sacking, new information
00:18comes to light that shows that it is the prime minister himself who is either lying or hopelessly
00:24incompetent. One of those two things must be true. It is either he knew that Mandelson failed
00:30the security vetting and lied to us in parliament on TV repeatedly, or he didn t know, didn t
00:37ask and said that he had passed the security vetting, which means that he is hopelessly
00:42incompetent. Either way, he should go.
