It does sound iffy.

Kiss of death?
Boris Johnson has given his full support to Priti Patel 'I absolutely do have confidence in Priti Patel'

Service industries don't rely on imports as labour based rather than materials, and where invoiced in £ to foreign customers a fall in the pound can increase profits. Ever since Maggie sorted out the Unions the lefties have been claiming manufacturing dead. Can't have it both ways.

Time to exterminate all gerbils. ...

Watching this incompetent government full of over promoted blowhards trying to deliver radical change is comical. I need another box of popcorn already. 🍿

[minerve 2] 01/3/2020 20:48

Maybe. But I kind of guess that if I voted to Remain there still is a part of my mind that is fully functional, which is more than I can say for you old boy! ;)

[maxk] 01/3/2020 20:46

What have you lost Min?


Your mind I suspect.

It is easy for politicians to accuse the Civil Service of getting in the way of their brilliant and ground breaking initiatives.

There is a minor difficulty in all this. Administrators at all levels are well used to each new government coming to the table with ambitions, Machiavellian habits and the burden of many promises made to the electorate.

Which are likely to conflict with actually running the country in some sort of moderately efficient way.

Whatever Rutnam's strengths or weaknesses as PS, I'm inclined to think he and the FDS have got lawyered up, and presented to them enough evidence to 'do a job on Patel' and quite possibly Johnson.

His announcement to the media was clinical and whilst it might be a ploy to get behinds twitching in Number 10 that isn't my take.

He's turned down a big pay off and probably a shoe in to some sort of well paid high profile job in order to do this. That requires a bit of spine. I figure they have the evidence to make this stick.

What a role model this lady is, imagine telling your kids "study hard, be smart, treat people well" and then having to explain why incompetents get promoted to one of the top jobs in government and their boss gladly endorses them.

Really sad state of affairs, Tory or not, surely this should ring alarms.

[minerve 2] 01/3/2020 20:35

Gammons keep on going on about Remain voters/supporters losing.....

What have we lost exactly?

[mr.elbee] 01/3/2020 19:56

Now Boris..start on the media.The ST today was another disgrace.
They have lost and they are having hissy fits all over the place.

a bit like minnie mouse

'Redwood is just a loser. Only idiots take this nutter seriously. Remember his challenge for Tory leadership? What a laugh that was.'


Corbyn WAS just a loser. Only idiots take this nutter seriously. Remember his challenge for Country leadership? What a laugh that was.'

I'd be quite happy to use me new baseball bat

He's unemployable now!

[gotnorolex] 01/3/2020 18:39

Min Do you ever stop to think your trail of vicious posts will find you out one day, failing a CRB check means you're unemployable!
