Tories new leader

[Khun Paul]

I will hold my own cousel until she has been in the seat for a few weeks.
As for the OTHER LIZ, Queen at her age, why the hell should she travel, she can ask/nay make people come to her, due to her old age and probably ongoing infimity . Some can be so crass in their thoughts and comments !!.

If she can't do the job, surely it is time she stepped aside and allowed the more mobile Charlie to do it.

Agree?

No do not agree but then expecting you to understand that would take a miracle !!

[mak]

Liz meet Liz.
Mary and Elizabeth, at least they have two names in common.

[deankham]

Excellent. God save the Queen

Looks like HM should have a "thought bubble" saying Jeez, and I thought Boris was bottom of the barrel

[Laan Yaa Mo]

The new Prime Minister is smart, studious and has a good sense of humour.

So was Bojo ............ (well according to Bojo he was,) but he was still a cr*p PM

[stattointhailand]

Thought i'd take a look to see who was gonna sort out the Grant Shapps mess as Transport Sec. What with the Railstrikes/airport and airline staff shortages/road haulier shortages and bus driver shortages caused by the Extreem Tory Brexit, we need someone who understands and has the experience of the transport industry to sort it out, so who has we got .......... Anne Marie Trevelyan whos claim to fame is "She has a passion for singing"
Somehow I fail to see how a rendition of The Casey Jones Theme or perhaps Convoy is going to be a lot of help

[deankham]

^ you raise a good point Statts. How / why do we allow people with zero experience in the field to take over the most senior position for it.

[Doodoo]

Sometimes it is best to put someone into a senior position with no experience. That way they have a an outside looking in opinion

I had a Supervisor who had no experience in this position in the oil/petrochemical industry. He had a Bachelor of Science degree and work previously at a Slaughtering House. I proceeded to question my Managers decision on this placement and he said to allow for this to progress. I did and in the end received the best boss I ever had. Reason was that he didnt want to know my job and allowed us to to manage ourselves. What he wanted to do was educate us on better way in doing our jobs, which he did.

[stattointhailand]

Hmm,so someone with absolutely no idea of your industry comes in and "educates us on better way of doing our jobs"

What an admission

[Earnest]

She didn't say that.

Not so fast Baldric. I have only a City & Guilds in Cheese Husbandry Part I & II (with Distinction and Credit respectively) from Dumbarton Polytechnic. Yet I have served a pivotal role in at least three significant oil discoveries worldwide plus half a dozen gas fields, a disputed pregnancy, a foreclosure and a brawl at a nightclub in Fortaleza. But I digress...

To answer the question, because we vote for them. That's the root cause of politicians.

Disclaimer: I was not and never have been Doodoo's boss (see above)

[Doodoo]

What a Dick
Thats you name correct

Total Dick thank you very much.

What's your excuse?

Once again couldnt come up with something original You had to jump onto someone elses band wagon

That's great. Sometimes, it does work out well that way.

I will hold my own cousel until she has been in the seat for a few weeks.
As for the OTHER LIZ, Queen at her age, why the hell should she travel, she can ask/nay make people come to her, due to her old age and probably ongoing infimity . Some can be so crass in their thoughts and comments !!.

Agree?

Got your wish jack.poor old girl dragged herself out of her death bed to do her duty

There's a bandwagon too? And they're playing covers?

Anyway, I am the OP so let me just carry on not worrying about anyone jumping onto anything.

As my cynical old colonial mate in Malaysia suggested earlier this morning "So, after meeting Liz Truss, the Queen lost the will to live

I'm seeing a theme here....
