George Osborne’s face as Polly Toynbee tears him a new one is a joy to behold
Polly Tonybee gave former chancellor turned Evening Standard editor (and much else besides) George Osborne a piece of her mind on Newsnight and it was a glorious watch.
You don’t have to be a fan of the Guardian columnist to enjoy this.
“This man has done such harm and damage to this country… your treatment of the poorest people in this country has been despicable”

Our favourite bit is the grin on his face when she starts and the gibbering wreck he is reduced to 88 seconds later.
speaks for many of us when she sticks it to George Osborne https://t.co/vuTK2xFpL4

Credit where credits due, that was one of the best put downs I've ever seen. Osborne's gibbering at the end was a sign of just how effective it was.
Nice one @pollytoynbee#newsnight https://t.co/sweQTTsiXQ

Well said Polly Toynbee. The architect of ideological Tory austerity, George Osborne, is a deeply unpleasant person. #newsnight

Generally she is too far to the lunatic left for me but on this one she was spot on. Osborne did evil to this country and his legacy continues both from what he did as Chancellor and now in his spite-filled bile against May in the Standard.

Truth in his face. Cold, sad, quiet truth. https://t.co/ji2BXZehuZ
