Priti Patel

[MintChocAddict]

Anyone else think that was possibly the smuggest walk into Downing Street ever?

Was I alone in praying she would trip up?

I detest her and feel great shame she’ll be representing our country abroad.

She's an absolute horror of epic proportions.
Someone who opposes gay marriage and supports the death penalty is now one of the most important people in the country!
Marvellous....

Gay marriage a definite red flag. I don’t have an issue with the death penalty for the most horrendous crimes. Yorkshire Ripper comes to mind.

She is a smug awful woman.

What myfolk said - poison.

She has no shame. Not a person of integrity at all.

Sorry - I thought she was becoming Foreign Sec.

Still detest her.

Dreadful horrible woman. About right for that twat's cabinet.

Dreadful woman, Her DH is one of my local councillors

FFS. One of the most unpleasant MPs there is in the face of stuff opposition. Didn't she have to resign over improper conduct in Israel? And Dominic Raab as foreign sec? Please don't tell me he'll be putting IDS back in work and pensions. That would be the icing on the cake.

Dh has met her

She just went on about poor people being poor cos they are lazy

He wasn’t impressed...and it wasnt a long meeting!

Awful. How do these fucking awful people rise to the top. What has happened to this country??

So far shaping up to be a fairly nasty cabinet. Raab should come with his own trigger warning and have heard that Patel is pretty poisonous.

Isn't she the one who said that the government shouldn't be subject to the decisions of the courts?

Oh, and she supports the death penalty.

How do these fucking awful people rise to the top.

It’s called The Peters Principle. People in a hierarchy tend to rise to their level of incompetence.

Myfok You win!

Yet another one previously sacked for lying - just like Boris.

Why the fuck is this being allowed to happen?

A huge minority of the country vote for Boris as new party leader so we're all led into this shit show!

Hopefully they'll give themselves a long enough rope to hang themselves with (Priti would approve) and common sense will prevail!

Priti Patel will make a massive horlicks of her responsibilities, this is a given. She is wildly incompetent.

thespottedzebra You win!
Sorry myfok

Mint - when you say common sense should prevail. What do you mean?

@TheSpottedZebra

Beautifully eloquent. But now I’m shit-scared.

A friend worked with TM at the Home Office and said the blinding inability to understand simple budgets and principles was shocking.

Sounds like it’s endemic.

I doubt there is anyone on here who will say a good word about her. My not good words based on the impression she gives (thankfully never met her and would cross the street to avoid doing so) is smug, dim, self-satisfied, unintelligent, completely lacking in self-awareness (especially evident when talking about immigration - duh), callous, and did I say SMUG.

MintChoc - it's ok. I recognise a superior submission!

Aside from personal 'qualities', her collusion with Israel and their influence on our government is scary, bloody scary.
