George Osborne's new firm has just 13 staff - but a big presence in corporate takeover deals
Mr Osborne had been editor of the Evening Standard. Last year he became editor-in-chief of the London free-sheet when Emily Sheffield took over as the day-to-day editor. Shortly before leaving Parliament he took up an advisor role at fund manager BlackRock, a one-day-week job that reportedly paid £650,000 a year.
I wonder with all the money sloshing around in the family business they might return the furlough payments they took from the tax payer?

Obviously someone wants their investment bank to go bust
He looks like Mr. Nosy Bonk
He never ceased being a Banker.
God help us
Steady on Auntie Beeb! Back on your leash.
Better off there than in the government

George Osborne is giving up most of his current jobs; one pays him £65,000 per day. He is to join the bank, Robey Warshaw. His salary has not been revealed, but a top director was paid £37.8m over two years. The company made £17.9m profit last year but paid no tax. (The Times)
There should be a large tax on MPs who later get jobs based solely on the career they had in government. This shop dummy should be delivering flyers from Jacks pizza & key cutting emporium.
Once a banker, always the banker
Capitalism working as intended. 😎
God help us.
Twug Smat.
All based on merit, best candidate for the job, etc ... 😬
Why will banks allow a Chancellor of the exchequer to be employed? Being Chancellor should send alarm bells ringing that this is a bad idea.
Of course he did- self self self
With the losses at the standard during Gideon's tenure was that a wise move by that bank?
Sinking ships and all that... 😎
Slimey pleb
Genuine question for conservative voters, do you ever feel ashamed of the choices you make? You are either terrible judges of character or you look up to these people and aspire to be like these greedy lying cheats!
Am I supposed to care? How does this impact my life?

George is becoming a butterfly.
LauraPh222 Well, there's a surprise. A real job was probably a bit much for him.
