Oh dear. The Chancellor of the Exchequer is not going to be pleased. Natalie Rowe, the former dominatrix who enjoyed a friendship with George Osborne in the early nineties, is planning a book to follow her autobiography. Further still, judging by the fact she is toying with the idea of calling it ‘Budge it’ – a phrase that bares a close resemblance to ‘budget’ – it could well feature Osborne again.
Mr S has blanked out one of the words to spare blushes.
For those who missed her initial book Chief Whip: Memoirs of a Dominatrix, which was released in 2013, Rowe gave a colourful account of her friendship with Osborne, who she met through her ex-boyfriend William Sinclair. In the book, Rowe claimed that she once licked Osborne’s ear. However, the Chancellor denies all allegations.
Mr S is happy to say that he has been invited to the book launch so will report back in due course.
