Main defence was “I didn’t appoint him as chancellor” and “it’s being checked by the ethics advisor”. He is such a weak PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Thats politics to an extent, and I’m by no means saying Sunak is anything other than cat muck, but given the depths Johnson sank to it would be impossible to be worse.

He is not worse, but he constantly tried to defend him and has the same lack of morality. So far he has failed to sack a minister who whilst in charge of taxes for the country owed a few million in taxes himself, reappointed Braverman who had earlier resigned as Home Secretary for breaches of code, failed to avert any strikes and his wife has saved millions in UK tax by having non dom tax status.

Two negatives is a positive if my maths is not too hazy. So we’re all being positive about stuff closing. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Cheese Posted January 25 Site Supporter Share Posted January 25 8 minutes ago, royal white said: It’s fairly obvious Is it? Both were promised on the back of Brexit, yet neither have materialised. Boris Johnson promised 40 new hospitals, and Tim Martin promised 18 new pubs. There are no new hospitals, and now Tim Martin is selling nearly 40 pubs and has opened no new ones. You can understand why I might think you were confused.

You’d have to be a complete simpleton to get confused by that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you know businesses do this all the time, pruning loss making parts of the business for the good of the company, it is just good housekeeping.
