All of the cabinet have been hand picked to make Johnson look like a competant statesman.
Being any good was not a needed skill.
Prerequisites for the job.
Can you nod?
Can you wear a badge?
Have you at least 2 Union Jack's.
Now repeat after me.
We are working very hard.
We are ramping it up.
Lessons are being learnt.
The public will know that.....
I don't recognise that.
"Your turn Gavin"
"What are they again"
"Don't worry, you have the job anyway, you would make Pol Pot look good"

FAILED

Unless you can stand at the box and say 'What the public really want to hear is...' in diverting response to an important question you're toast

Appoint 109 ministers from 158 pro Brexit MPs from 650 MPs

Over the course of a few years add another 40 'Get Brexit done' MPs and change a few that didn't make the cut first time round (even though it was a 2 in 3 chance).

A brilliant way of making sure the best people are in the best positions and you get la creme de la creme. Johnson, Matt Hancock, Dominic Raab,Gavin Williamson, Priti Patel, Robert Jenrick, Suella Braverman, Kwasi Kwarteng :lolol:

And there are still people who are surprised when these creme de la creme do really stupid things :eek:

In the history of the whole world has there ever a nation run by so many morons? Even the US never got this bad.

Absolutely not true. Bush Jr took them into 2 wars and shepherded his Bin Laden family friends out of the US after 9/11, whilst Trump promoted numerous conspiracy theories, encouraged white supremacy, encouraged the cops to beat up black protesters and attempted an armed insurrection after losing the presidency. The UK government is tremendously competent and principled by comparison.

Even El Presidente couldn't have predicted the turns this thread would take within the first 50 posts.

Hey you've missed off Lizz Truss, the severely underrated photo-copy operator

Correct.

I would add all of Italy's shower, apart from Aldo Moro (and look what they did to him)
Greece
Albania
Venezuela
Iran

I could go on.

Still....

"Better than the Expediency Discernment Council, Supreme National Security Council and the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution of Iran " isn't exactly a compelling election rally cry, is it? ???

Oh, Boris. What have you done to us?

You can see why Iannucci stopped making 'The Thick Of It'. This shower of self serving, morally bankrupt, entitled, incompetents constantly produce inadvertent, real life, absurdist satires on our political system that even the best comedy writers would struggle to compete with.

Reading the article the first thing that came to mind was The Thick of It…

How could I possibly forget Lizz Truss, remarkably the second most experienced Minister in Government after Michael Gove :facepalm:

:lolol:

Jan Ravens (I think - but could be Debra Stephenson) does the most amazing and entertaining impersonation of Liz Truss on Dead Ringers (R4). Hilarious. I commend to all.

The biggest success story of this government to date is to greatly increase the size of the chips on the shoulders of those who aren't so keen on them. This success is evident all over NSC. :laugh:
