EXCLUSIVE: Team Harman closes ranks as the back stabbing begins?

As Guido has noted the Evening Standard has said - despite legal threats - that it is sticking with it's story that Jon Mendelsohn was involved in secret donation cover-ups. According to the Standard it considers its source excellent.

This source wouldn't be one of Harriet Harman's parliamentary supporters spotted in Westminster last night at Shepherd's Restaurant with the journalist from the Evening Standard that wrote the story, would it?

Nah... I'm sure it's just a coincidence! They wouldn't start stooping that low and stabbing each other in the back just to save their own skins? Would they?

please names and source, dizzy. this is a major scoop. guido jumped to the obvious conclusion that it was one of benn's people. the thing about guido is he keeps battering away and occasionally draws blood but his instinct is nill.

It was Mendelsohn himself who put the name of Gareth Thomas (of Benn's campaign) into the frame, not Guido.

Stab each othert in the back? Of course they would. This has been going on for years with the knowledge of every senior figure in the Labour Party

The Daily Mirror reckons it's got nothing to do with Harry Redknapp.
I love the way they cover the BIG stories!
