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.

Brexiteers have the global portfolios (Johnson, Foreign; Davis, Brexit; Fox, Trade) & Remainers have the home front

Is this a joke?
Foreign Secretary - Boris Johnson.
Why not appoint prince Philip and have done with it.

I knew times were bad, but not this bad.
I wonder how many others have become turncoats and refused to accept jobs and asking for dual nationality on the mainland.

i see fred retains his democratic right to denigrate all and sundry though he has seemingly never cast a vote in any election
shame he never has anything constructive or interesting to say - unless you want to be reminded of ancient history with little relevance to today's world

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jul/13/corbyns-uselessness-has-lost-its-charm-but-hes-not-labours-only-problem
Corbyn’s uselessness has lost its charm, but he’s not Labour’s only problem
agile and in control. Speed is decisive. All those who look on the current works of the Tory party are reeling with admiration at the blood-soaked tapestry and envy at the stitchup. In a backroom deal, a small number of people decided who would be prime minister, but, look, here she is installed, and many are breathing a sigh of relief that someone is in charge. The man who was once the future is past; Theresa May is assembling her cabinet and is signalling that there will be some significant changes in policy.
Meanwhile, Labour slowly bleeds out, unable to offer anything like a functional opposition, not able even to have a meeting that lasts less than several hours. It will lumber along wounded and snarling until a leadership election in September, apparently. Is this the end? The beginning of the end? Will there be a remission period? Possibly, but there is now something so profoundly sluggish in its gait that it is pitiful. A modern party has to move fast and react quickly – socialism can’t be Skyped in – but in anxious times the Labour party needs to show it can jump. It hasn’t been able to for a long time and, by electing Jeremy Corbyn, it deliberately chose to reward endurance over agility.

Manuel.
Unfortunately, history was responsible for you.
But even you must admit the present tory party of neo-cons is a disaster.
However, I suppose Boris will be a good advert or traveling salesman for it.
Mind I suppose it is representative of yourself.

All things considered, I think the choices for the responsibility of Brexit is
positive with Davis running the Brexit office, and Fox at International trade,
buffoon BoJo will have to start acting his age and be more mature..
And its bye bye georgie boy....

if those that have lost their cabinet jobs vote against the gov the gov can not pass any
plans . so this gov could now be doomed .
