Barlow Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I wish the new House all the best, but come on folks wake up, there's a dearth of talent, ability and experience. Some might say it has always been thus. Well we've got by ok, always have and always will do, s'pose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admit it, you would have had a thrombie if her name hadn't been there. To be fair, all of the class of 2016 who were returned this time, will be first in line (actually no alternative) for a seat on the top table. So you'll be ok.

I am also interested in what you have been drinking on a sunday morning because I am heading into town soon so could pick some up. A prompt reply would be appreciated as I fancy an alternative to the usual Sunday red wine. Thanks in advance 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need new ways of seeing things and new ways of thinking... That's speaking idealistically. There are many new MHKs who have never even sat in the public gallery, let alone chair a meeting as a Minister of a Department. Just face it, many will be clueless and like rabbits in the headlights. Depending on their Dunning-Kruger level, they are embarking on a steep and highly responsible learning curve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked myself "would he be anymore inept than Ashford?" It's also rumoured Glover doesn't know how to use a paper shredder... he had staff for that at MR.

His current antics in terms of vocal outbursts suggest he is looking for excuses as not to get his hands dirty. He would be positively dangerous as a minister anyway. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need new ways of seeing things and new ways of thinking... Johnson? Well at least he should have experience of form filling and grants if nothing else. JPW - DESC - I think that’s a bit below for the likes of Hyacinth Bucket. Not a big enough position. Clare Christian - good position for another expert and friend of the COC. The Civil Servants in the department will not get the measure. Crookall - God help us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
