Current Affairs The Conservative Party

Manchild PM incapable of leadership keeps incompetent and unfit for office loyalists in his cabinet - eroding convention and constructional norms.

It's been this since Day 1.

 

[Alan Whittle]

Her mistake was to show emotion instead of removing or sacking anyone trying to frustrate her aims and policies....

You don’t actually know that do you Pete?

You don’t actually know that do you Pete?

Only what has been reported. You don’t know that she shouted at anyone....

 

[peteblue]

A cabinet of liars, bullies and incompetents?
Very low bar that.
You must have derived great pleasure from sacking people in your illustrious career

I never took pleasure in removing anyone from their job.....

 

[peteblue]

I wonder if the people who matter, the voters (apart from the Tory acolytes) will see it that way.

We’ll find out in four years...

If you say so.....

What we do know:

• Objectively it was serious enough to meet the criteria of bullying (in a world where tension and shouting at people is fairly commonplace)
• The report was asked to be palatable by the PM (unconventional interference in independent process from the PM)
• On publication of the outcome, the PM backed his minister (fairly uncommon)
• Author resigns at the position.
• The Government haven't released the full report..

"We don't know enough to say for certain".

The worrying thing really is the lack of collective opposition to this shambles.

Opinion pieces and reporting are different Pete. I’m sure you know that.

 

[Blues Harp]

No one in the HO has come out and defended her..absolutely no one. Just spineless tory mps parroting the words bozo has fed them.

I think he will pack it in once Brexit is "done". He hasnt the interest nor patience to engage in the work needed post covid, (and most likely post Brexit).

Also, he is skint. Relatively. And likely to get skinter post divorce.

I wonder if he would be deluded enough to think that going after Brexit was done would be going out on a high roydo.

I wonder if he would be deluded enough to think that going after Brexit was done would be going out on a high roydo.

I just think it gives him a pretty convenient excuse. (Could cite Covid side effects as well)

He could still sit as an MP, (£40k pay cut, give or take), and/or pick up his Telegraph columns again. (£600k, give or take).

He has never really shown a desire to do anything longterm. I dont think he is that arsed about politics once he has got to PM, he isnt some idealist or campaigner, and isnt turned on by being a public servant.

Being Mayor of London turned him on, cos he didnt have to actually do much. And no one noticed anyrate. If the Olympics hadnt rocked up, I doubt he would have bothered with that neither.

Absolutely no way he lasts 4 more years.
