Peter Mandelson needs to shut the hell up.

He is a ex. Labour MP who had to resign TWICE because he:

1) bought a home in Notting Hill in 1996 with the assistance of an interest-free loan of ?373,000 from Geoffrey Robinson, a millionaire Labour MP who was also in the Government but was subject to an inquiry into his business dealings by Mandelson's department.

2) phoned Home Office minister Mike O'Brien on behalf of Srichand Hinduja, an Indian businessman who was seeking British citizenship, and whose family firm was to become the main sponsor of the "Faith Zone" in the Millennium Dome. At the time, Hinduja and his brothers were under investigation by the Indian government for alleged involvement in the Bofors scandal.

...and this guy wants to go around preaching what is right and wrong???

IMHO the U.S should have the right to allow or disallow online gambling, not the EU, World Trade or anyone else.

Disclaimer: I'm British.
