[Politics] Dick Off

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Cressida forced to resign!

 

[Titanic]

Who appoints her replacement?

 

[Clive Walker]

Always preferred mark flats out of the two.

Another good way to distract attention/news from Johnson's misdeeds....

"Dame Cressida Dick has "absolutely no intention" of leaving her post as commissioner of the Met Police.

She told BBC Radio London she wanted to root out "disgusting behaviour" within the Met and had told officers "enough is enough".

Surely the thread title should be ‘Dick Out’.

This - poor effort by the OP. Disappointing.

Effectively sacked by the Mayor. The Government (because they think the alternatives are too "woke") would rather she remained.

Home Secretary would need to approve, so I suspect she had no choice to resign if The Mayor had lost confidence in her.

Be interesting how the Home Secretary responds..

 

[The Clamp]

Bye bye Dick. Which corrupt suit will be taking your place?

Normally I’d agree but Johnson is weaker without her. This is good news.

 

[A1X]

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Had to go.

Johnson next.

The Queen.

Recommended by the Home Secretary after seeking the advice of the Mayor.

Yep, the Labour Mayor and the Home Secretary have to sit down and agree on a person. It has all the potential for a huge shit storm.

Interesting. Maybe this is Khan's secret tactics!

Yes. Too many disasters on her watch.

I've edited my post, because if she was sacked The Home Secretary would have to agree.

The only reason Dick was hanging around was because The Government really don't like the alternatives because they are "politically off message".

 

[Zebedee]

I wonder who her replacement will be? One thing that we can be certain of is that it won't be a white middle class male or female.

Surely a word play on an ex player just inches it.
