Chaos in Government

Re: Chaos in Government

Boris won't have any power, I doubt they will let him make any decisions, it will be by cabinet committee until the New Leader in September.

Johnson's cuddly name to the last. If you think he wouldn't try to use this period for some kind of grandstanding redemption attempt you have learned nothing from the last three years!

Re: Chaos in Government

I've said before I'm totally done with political parties and prefer direct activism these days.

Parliament needs to work together. Get the brightest and best of all parties and sort the mess out. I cringed earlier this week listening to Starmer. I cringe listening to all political party leaders. Labour needs to work with everyone else and stop this idea of a party 'winning' an election but remember that each MP is representing real people with real problems in the real world. Westminster is not fit for purpose.

They fail with their basic duty of care. They'd be fired in the world I live in.

Yes there could be a much more effective way to run a country, if you ran a business in the same way as we run the country it would be a total disaster.

It is not gong to change until the motivation is there for the MPs to start acting differently. At the moment their only incentive is to get voted in again next time, and maybe get themselves a more important job.

Re: Chaos in Government

They have work to do, they'll know the jobs and what needs to be done, the resignations were just a mutiny to push Boris as he wouldn't go himself.

The quicker they get a new leader the quicker, it's probably the worst possible time!

They've had three years of work to do and taken the piss. I can't think of any real world example that wouldn't have had a complete management restructure and fired the lot of them in any professional environment I've ever worked in.

Work to do! Here you go, these were taken in Grangetown Tescos yesterday. The real f*cking world! Westminster's a theatrical drama full of egos, cocaine and sexual predators. They can all do one as far as I'm concerned.

Exactly this. They talk about supporting businesses then watch them rot. They sit as overpaid executives on boards that want a Trophy Director who's covertly lobbying in government (actually they're so brazen now they've stopped doing that) who's got no f*cking clue how to run the business of which they are a board member. The motivation of our state employees should be to help its citizens. Not just the ones who voted for their party or brand of politics. All of us.

I'd welcome some diversion. I'm never going to complain about sh*t football ever again!

100%

Under the current system, less than half the electorate can vote a party into a landslide victory.

Even in Blair's first election I think Labour got well under half the votes.

Some are calling for proportional rep in elections - why shouldn't the government appoint a cabinet according to the % of votes?

The way we have now sees us swinging from right to left snd back every few years.

Re: Chaos in Government

Johnson has no shame whatsoever, but we knew that already. The way in which he is currently clinging onto power is comical and cringeworthy in equal measures.

People actually voted for this man. There were millions who genuinely believed Johnson would make a good Prime Minister, but that’s the British public for you.

Did they? I suppose his constituents did, but in the UK we have a parliamentary system, not a presidential system. The voters voted for the party, not the man.

In fairness, the amount of support given to private business in the last two and half years is unprecedented in the history of the country.

Had the market been left to it's devices, then there quite literally would be millions unemployed right now

Yes, they did. Very definitely.

That's not really a conservative achievement though is it. It's what any country should do when 90% of people can't go to work.
