The political future of the businessman featured in suggestive sexual liaisons with another male in video clips released recently, has apparently crashed.

THE WEEKEND STAR understands that the well-dressed businessman was dallying with politics and was in fact being groomed by a political party to run in an upscale constituency in the Corporate Area.

A party insider told THE WEEKEND STAR that the businessman had found favour with members of the political organisation as he had the right image.

But since news broke of the video clips which show him in a sexual act with a 'talkative' male, prominent party members have been saying "not in my party".

"Now, no one wants to touch him with a long pole," declared the politician. "His political future is about as dead as a doornail," the insider said.

It's understood that the businessman has also lost a lot of business since the allegations started to spread like wildfire.

When contacted by THE WEEKEND STAR a member of the party secretariat said: "He is a 'wannabe'. He merely expressed an interest in running on a party ticket, but he was never officially selected to run on the party ticket."

He further said: "He was never endorsed by the system that has been put in place to select candidates."

Other party members told THE WEEKEND STAR that they have not seen the businessman since different accounts of the alleged affair began to circulate in the public domain.

"But no one is waiting to hear his side, he is now tainted, a member said.
