The state of UK politics

[Mustafaster]

Sunak's ethics advisor is Sir Laurie Magnus.
He was educated at Eton College and Christ Church, Oxford, and is the 3rd Baronet of Tangley Hill, a title he inherited upon the death of his uncle, Sir Philip Magnus-Allcroft in 1988. He has a four-decade career in finance in the City of London.

Shawcross was educated at St Aubyns Preparatory School in Rottingdean, Eton College, and University College, Oxford, from which he graduated in 1969.

Zahawas.
Wonder who will step up. So many high quality politicians in the frame.

[Bobbycollins]

Sunak previously promised to publish a summary of the Independent Adviser's report, whereas Labour and the press were looking for the full report. Now that Zahawi has been sacked, does that mean even the summary will not be published? As regards his successor, it must be Mad Nad to follow Bad Nad.

No chance of the report being published. That's one of the reasons for sacking him.
As to the replacement: has to be a Brexiteer.
Frost
Rees Mogg
Sharma

Man A who says he didn't advise man B was named in official memoranda as someone who man B should no longer seek advice from.


Perfidious Albion and the detritus which floats to the top.

Rees Mogg on the move for the Zahawi gig.
Johnson cult getting the front pages again with his own personal Russian missile.
The Return of The King.

Please let it happen.

I missed this earlier. Typically it's all about him "He threatened me at one point, and he said, 'Boris, I don't want to hurt you but, with a missile, it would only take a minute' or something like that". Perhaps we could agree with Putin to send Johnson to some desolate, deserted place, such as a rural train station in the north and he can send the missile in that direction. Shame these phone calls are never recorded, but luckily we can rely on the proven truthfulness of our great leader.

Absolute bullshit, as is pretty much everything that spews from his lips.
He knows it, we know it, and he knows that we know it.
But ... keeps him on the front pages.
Next week, a trip to Washington or another spin around Kyiv.
Mebbe he could nip over to the middle east and fix the Palestinian problem.

That's Raab's gig, Shirley.

"You know, before the PM gave me this huge responsibility I hadn't fully realised how religiously important The Holy Land was, and not just to Christians like me. It's actually quite crowded, and there are apparently some significant differences of opinion about how things should be which I'm really looking forward to learning more about while I solve them..."

Good luck lads

[eric olthwaite]

Well, this is cheery

Feels about right though.

[the flying pig]

this quote is extraordinary. did he get his words jumbled up somehow?

[Eddies Boots]

I have heard this kind of talk over here.
A ceasefire is no good unless the Russians fuck off back home - which they won't.
How stupid are these people?
If we let Putin have any of Ukraine now, then he will come back for more.

[the flying pig]

in other news, Lizzie Truss's paymasters seem to trying to squeeze one last kidney stone of wisdom out of her... not, I'm guessing, to a rapturous reception.

This bit from the beeb article : But the ex-PM argued that the government was made a "scapegoat" for developments that had been brewing for some time.

WTF? She had been in the government that was responsible for some time.

Corbyn would have engaged Putin early on and told him, “Look Vlad this is completely wrong” I guess he missed how well trying to appease Putin went for Germany. No surprise. Fucking idiot.
