Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Reshuffle: Ministers facing the sack in mutiny against David Cameron



JOE MURPHY, POLITICAL EDITOR
Published: 14 July 2014 Updated: 17:58, 14 July 2014
David Cameron faced a mutiny from ministers facing the sack tonight in a reshuffle cull of “male and pale” Cabinet members.

Friends of Environment Secretary Owen Paterson said there would be “fury” in the countryside if the right winger was axed. Lord [Greville] Howard of Rising, said “There are 12 million voters in the countryside and they will be absolutely furious if he is moved.”

Andrew Lansley, the Commons leader, is also believed to be resisting a return to the backbenches, arguing that he was promised to be nominated for a plum European Commissioner post.

Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan-Smith is thought to have been successful in a fight against Treasury pressure to move him and is expected to have won the right to stay in charge of benefits reform.

Mr Cameron plans to carry out sackings in his Commons office tonight and to make appointments tomorrow. The regular Tuesday Cabinet has been postponed until a special session at Chequers on Friday.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...............

Iain Dale ‏@IainDale 43s
I'm now hearing William Hague will not just step down as Foreign Secretary but will also announce he's standing down from Parliament.

Rats deserting the sinking ship.


WHAT A SHAMBLES.

The last throw of Cameron and the party of Cons.

He is staying on as an advisor.

Confidence vote, it's the only chance to save the tory party, cos Dave has lost the plot.

If he ever had it?

They are doing a god job considering it is a coalition.

Dave cant keep using the lib/dims as a bomb shelter, stand up and be counted.


Or why not go the whole hog and join them, €urope an all?

Camoron as certainly lost the plot.

Ukip support plummets to push Tories back into the lead

Poll shows Tories picking up majority of deserters as Farage's party drops back into single figures, with Labour on 33%

Ukip support has plunged back from its high point of the European elections, giving a boost to all the established Westminster parties and pushing the Tories into the lead, according to a new Guardian/ICM poll.

Nigel Farage's party drops back into single figures to stand on 9%, down seven points from last month's score of 16%. The Tories pick up the lion's share of these deserters, gaining three points to climb to 34%, enough to put them a single point ahead of Labour, even though the opposition also edges up one to 33%.

The Liberal Democrats also climb two, to 12%.
