[Politics] Boris Johnson, the new UK Prime Minister

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Politics is a career these days with every single politician, regardless of political persuasion, being only interested in personal aggrandisement and serving their own selfish interests. They are all equally to blame for the shit state we are in.

 

[Questions]

Liz Truss has been appointed Secretary of State for International Trade and President of the Board of Trade

Truss : thank you for your support.

 

[The Lemming Stomper]

You finally did it. You maniacs. God damn you. God damn you to hell

Planet of the Apes ?

Ironically Charlton Heston about as right wing as Boris

 

[theboybilly]

CJTC.

And a cabinet full of them too. We need an election ASAP.

Best of 5?

 

[WATFORD zero]

Would you like it changed then? 23:00 31st October 2019 ?

I'm sure a friendly mod will oblige.

Yes please, I would like you to take the responsibility you took for keeping the Brexit thread title up to date and changing the leave date each time it changes.

Thank you very much

It's probably just me but it annoys me when people won't take responsibility for the results of what they've done

Read biographies of politicians from a century ago. Or Trollope's Parliamentary novels.
The difference between solvency and insolvency for a lot of them was the salary that went with a ministerial position.
Churchill, Asquith, Lloyd George....
Nothing has changed.
There was no golden age.

As I said, I don't go on that thread any more. If another friendly mod would like to change then fine, but it really wouldn't bother me one way or the other.

Nothing has changed apart from the incompetence and shallowness of those in parliament today. There are no Statesmen(women) or anyone who inspires confidence. A personal opinion.

Liz Truss has been appointed Secretary of State for International Trade and President of the Board of Trade

Liz Truss is as far a snotty nosed cow as it is possible to get, on programmes like QT she makes me throw my slippers at the TV.
Priti Patel? Give me strength.

 

[Dave the OAP]

It’s more like the thick of it every minute.

Chancellor of the Exchequer - Sajid Javid
Home Secretary - Priti Patel
Foreign Secretary (and First Secretary of State) - Dominic Raab
Defence Secretary - Ben Wallace
BrExit Secretary - Stephen Barclay
Cabinet Office as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, no deal coordinator - Michael Gove

Rees mogg has been made lord high executioner and minister for plague control.

 

[CHAPPERS]

What a shower of *****.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Has that Fukwit failing Grayling gone yet.
I thought Mogg may get that gig and bring back Stephenson's Rocket.

Theresa Villiers has been appointed Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

I know that it hard for many here on NSC,but give the guy a chance. As for Labour crying over democracy they had no issues shoeing in G/B. Did you get a vote on that ?.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Yes installing Priti Patel who called for return of the death penalty, voted against same sex marriage, and threatened to use Irish food shortages in the event of no deal as leverage against the back stop, surely indicates that this will be the most liberal cabinet in years.

This is all true and disgraceful but I will concede that he is liberal.
But he is also a total clown and has a loose mouth, give it a month, the cover will come down and he will balls it right up as soon as a statesmanlike decision is to be made, unless he is guided like a puppet.
I could not believe his Churchill impression this afternoon, he really knows how to pull the strings of the stupid.

If there is any crumb of sense left he should never been allowed to be in a position to be allowed a chance.
This country has gone potty.
The cabinet is like Zippos Circus, the Tories are totally split and truly pathetic.
