Retired but stll a leftie. Anti Tory. Pro fairness and respect to all

So it continues. I read this evening that Sunak has stopped ministers appearing daily on the morning media round. They will only now appear when they have announcements to make.

Another example about how the tories want to escape scrutiny and accountability. The sooner they are out the better

This truly is astonishing. In any other business/professional organisation heads would roll if this type of culture existed. Why do we allow this government to be different

@gem_abbott
excellent piece from Andrew Rawnsley this morning I thought. Very clearly outlined the stench at the centre of government and how a change of prime minister (or changes I should say) has made no real difference. If we thought things would improve after Johnson was ousted then we were wrong
@gem_abbott
Couldn't agree more about Sunak's judgement. As a ex-civil servant (although from a very long time ago) I every sympathy with those having to serve politicians for whom they have no respect to implement policies in which they have no belief.

Yeap - I see his name up there.I for one won't be following him. If nothing else I find it hard to believe anything he says

@EmmaKennedy
I think your posts are useful. Please don't stop

So he didn't get what he wants so he complains .... That's have cake and eating it
I know it's very early but looks like the Republicans have not had it all their own way in the mid terms. Keeping my fingers cross that democrats can hold the senate
So I have 2 takeaways from the Williamson debacle.
1) We already knew that Williamson was a very poor minister after his disaster in Education. Now we know he's also very, very nasty
2) Sunak's political judgement is really very poor. To appoint him in the first place was clearly a misjudgement. Sticking by him for so long was crass
@gem_abbott That's worrying news. I can't believe the police have done this by accident.
