Wonder if this is also the first time the monarchy have sworn in a PM who's twice as rich as them ?

Another first they haven't yet mentioned Grin

Sounds like Truss's bye bye speech was crazy

All pretty pathetic behaviour

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:00

Hmm not looking like Sunak is going for the brightest and best from who's going in to No10

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:00

Braverman
Cleverly
Raab
Dowden

There are debts to pay for, if not actually supporting, then not actively undermining Rishi’s bid for leadership.

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:11

Yes but where does that leave the rest of us?

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:13

Beth Rigby says Dowden Chancellor of the duchy of Lancaster?? That's always a strange one

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:13

Raab deputy and justice minister

Still deeply in the mire. Rishi’s not this country’s saviour, he’s just not quite as bad as the previous two shit shows. He’s the least worst option.

The (idea) of the furlough scheme should have been in place as part of the pandemic planning - you know, the operation the Conservative government ignored. Having to get something organised in the teeth of an emergency is an utter fail in my book. And he set it up in such a way that it was fraudulently used, costing the taxpayer a needless fortune. I consider the furlough scheme a black mark against Richy Sushi.

Yes and lack of pandemic planning was down to Hunt.

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:15

Oh and Zahawi gone in

It's all super

BoreOfWhabylon · 25/10/2022 16:18

Hope Coffey is out too.

Piggywaspushed · 25/10/2022 16:26

Cleverly foreign sec still.

All that morning tweeting about his work panned out then.

tobee · 25/10/2022 16:31

No Mordaunt yet?

Maybe he's saving her til last and just as she's given up, he'll pull her out of a hat? Ta-da!

Did you see what I did there? 🪄 🎩 ✨

Piggywaspushed · 25/10/2022 16:32

Looks like Govey is going back to Levelling Up.

Beautiful work there, @tobee

I'm hopeful she'll be kept where she is, minister for reading things out in a plummy voice.

Piggywaspushed · 25/10/2022 16:44

So Nadhim Zahawi has chair.

StarryGazeyEyes · 25/10/2022 16:48

Seems to be appointing people where they already have experience, which I guess makes sense if you want stability, but doesn't exactly look like a new dawn.

Piggywaspushed · 25/10/2022 17:01

FFS!

Suella back at Home.

Piggywaspushed · 25/10/2022 17:02

Did eh not do a Bad Thing then? Did she misspeak?
