Suella! Braverman!

Let the civil war commence!

Again.

Getting boring now isn’t it?

Just bought shares in HappiPop Corn Corp.

Watch the slithy Gove!

Who put Monday morning in the “when is she going to be sacked?” sweepstakes?!

Radio 5 reporting that James Cleverley has just gone into No.10 and are calling him as next Home Sec.

Sacked!

Radio 5 reporting that James Cleverley has just gone into No.10 and are calling him as next Home Sec.

Well he’s had a quick stint in education and is currently Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs (a position held for just over 2 months) so it must be time for another game of musical chairs.

Has Grant Schapps been Home Secretary yet? I lose track of his cabinet musical chairs

Can’t wait for her letter. Should be a zinger.

Has Grant Schapps been Home Secretary yet? I lose track of his cabinet musical chairs

Yes, for 6 days in between Suella Braverman being sacked for the first time and then reinstated.

In some respects maybe having a rolling door of various ministers is a good thing because nothing that serious ever gets time to be implemented. Thinking about it, a lot of stuff has been announced over the past decade but apart from the disaster that is Brexit, nothing has actually gone into law. It’s just consultation after consultation, and even then they get scrapped after some white-haired pensioner suggests that they don’t like it.

It really does make The Thick of It seem quite dull and toned down.

BBC reporting David Cameron has just walked into Number 10? WTF?!!

BBC reporting now that David Cameron has arrived and is new Home Secretary!

Dammit Binners! 12 seconds! 🤣🤣🤣

Just when you thought this couldn’t take a more bizarre twist…..

For God’s sake, hasn’t he done enough damage?

Did they cook this shit up at the Cenotaph yesterday?

“What are you up to these days Dave? Fancy being Foreign Secretary?”

You never know, might be the political equivalent of this seminal 80s TV moment.

Brexit? Pandemic? Boris? All a bad dream, love.

Gone before the Rwanda decision unwinds later this week. According to the Sunday Times, privately nobody expects the government to win that case, and hence even primary legislation (asking MPs to vote) won’t be seen as an option. What a loss 🥲

There has been a shitload of legislation passed, the wackadoodle announcements are just the distraction so the legislation they are creating doesn’t get full scrutiny.

isn’t she a Buddhist?

Typo? Did they mean Butt Cyst?

Don’t you have to be an MP?

Don’t you have to be an MP?

Or a Lord. Which he will now become, I guess. Not sure what the turnaround time on corrupt peerages is, perhaps they’ll tack him on the Truss list, just to add insult to injury for her.

Everyone that voted for a BoZo led Government, see what your idiotic voting has brought. Go hang you heads in shame.

I was over the moon when I read the headline. Then I scrolled down and read that on Friday afternoon the Met police literally threw the homes/tents and belongings of ten homeless men in the back of a bin lorry. Put a bit of a ding in my mood.

(apologies if that’s already been mentioned.)

Why do they walk up Downing Street?

Is it like dropping off a child at school where you can’t park in the zig-zag lines?

One would have thought that there would be an interconnecting corridor or perhaps a loading bay space near the door.

They know they’ll lose it and they actively want to

If they win, they will actually have to deliver it. And as we know, this lot couldn’t deliver a ****ing pizza. They’ve deliberately held Rwanda up as a panacea to all the countries ills and deliberately painted a misleading picture of tens of thousands of immigrants being shipped off to Africa. The reality is that it’d be a couple of hundred people and won’t make the slightest bit of difference to anything. All at absolutely enormous cost

Easier to lose it, then use it to go full ‘enemies of the people’, a la Brexit. Then you get to use it to attack the ‘Guardian-reading, tofu-eating wokerati’ judiciary and demand withdrawal from the ECHR to boot

Guardian-reading, tofu-eating wokerati

Can I help? (Apart from tofu – paneer is as far as I go)

BBC reporting David Cameron has just walked into Number 10? WTF?!!

Election planning? Normal to talk to a past winner if considering a date… he ain’t asking Johnson for advice!

BBC reporting now that David Cameron … is new Home Secretary!

Not a chance.

Always nice to start the week on a positive note.

I shall celebrate with a delicious tofu stew.

More of the same…

Rummaging around in the Tory toolbox.

Lol at Dave going into number 10.

Might have to start another thread for another bad Tory. 😉

Well it just so happens I’ve got tofu for tea today, how apt

As much as I think in an ideal world no tory would ever have any position of power, I’ll take David Cameron over the current crop every day of the week

although as has been mentioned earlier, I thought you had to be a sitting MP to have a role in government

it speaks volumes however that of the 300 odd sitting MP’s they have in place, the PM didn’t think anybody else was suitable.

I know that this Government have long since thrown out the Governmenting Rulebook but surely there is no way that Cameron could be given a ministerial role?! Since he’s not an MP, they’d have to make him a Lord. But secondly, putting a former PM and leader of the Remain campaign into a cabinet absolutely stuffed to the rafters with rabid Brexiteers is surely not going to happen?

However, stranger things have happened… 🤷

It would say “caretaker government” if he was given a domestic brief. No chance.

Gove is going to be so pissed he didn’t get home secretary

isn’t she a Buddhist ?

Yes, sorry, you’re absolutely right.

She may call herself a ‘Buddhist’, but that statement holds about as much water as me walking past a Karate gym and calling myself a black belt.

Even the Buddhist community in London have told her to sod off, in their own respectful, non-confrontational way.

Ehh – not sure the Rohingya would agree with the suggestion that all “real Buddhists” are gentle ant-huggers. But of a “no true Scotsman” vibe about some of these statements. Braverman fits right in.

Westerners rarely associate Buddhism with extremism or violence, but Buddhist movements in Asia have often raised few qualms about the use of force. Buddhist authorities have, at times, justified violence against the faith’s enemies and supported authoritarian regimes.

When Buddhists Back the Army

LBC out and about in Fareham, everyone they spoke to supports Braverman. WTAF?

Big Cam to the rescue!

Presumably is Cameron gets a job it shows how little talent there is within the current MPs 

She’ll have a presenter slot on GB News by the end of the week. I reckon the previous couple of weeks has actually been a sneaky job interview where she’s promised them that she’s far-right and they’ve gone “hmm, are you sure about that, please prove it”.

Back in for second interview later today – “there we go, did you see the far-right thugs start a riot at the Cenotaph?!”

Congratulations, you’ve got the job.

Nominative determinist oxymoron Cleverly as Home sec, I’ve heard. Cameron to ForSec is the rumour, would mean he has to be a Lord asap.

If that’s the case, the rest of the reshuffle can be left…… one out to be a shouty backbencher (That’ll be fun, after her resignation statement

“It has been the greatest privilege of my life to serve as home secretary,” she says. “I will have more to say in due course.”)

and one in from the sidelines. However lots of rumours that junior ministers in the various Depts are stepping down which kind of indicates their bosses / sponsors are as well.

Utter rats in a sack chaos.
