Cabinet reshuffle aka you couldn't make it up | Forum

So we have Jeremy Hunt (I think that's his name) - the believer in homeopathy running the health service.

We have David Laws (he who fiddled his expenses and had to step down, if you remember, because clearly Cameron has forgotten) now back back back helping to look after the education of your children.

And Chris Grayling, a nice right-winger from the libdems, doing his best for Justice.

And of course we haven't got rid of handsome old Osborne, he's doing such a good job.

I won't tell you any more, it'll put you off your tea.

That's Dave Cameron's major policy decision of this year. He will not face any other taxing efforts for his brain. Chris Grayling is a Tory so an understandable mistake.

No major shufflings from Clegg n co (at time of press!).

The transport lass was only 10 months in her job! Still, I guess the new arrival is to make the 3rd runway at Heathrow a more palatable policy reversal (in the ongoing series).

It's funny that Ken Clarke has been kept on as Minister of Vaguely Wandering About as a something of a sop.

Boris, he of "I Don't want the Job!" fame, came out slagging things off within moments of the intital announcements.

Actually, I'm not sure he DOES want the job, it being something of a poisoned chalice these days, and he's doing ok profile wise with his brand of amiable buffoonery.
I'm sure he enjoys people thinking that he wants the job, and that he could do it and that he's an election winner - not sure he'd really want to do it.

Tragedy Farce...it's all here.

There's also this charmer as Minister for Equality
