As she went into N.10 through the front door it suggests she was offered an alternative role and refused it. Sackings tend to be done in the PM’s commons office for dignity reasons. Or if not the minister enters and exists through the back door. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,684 Posted November 13, 2023 We need a modern-day Guy Fawkes to slip down to the Palace of Westminster vaults. With a more successful outcome than old Guido’s, obviously. What a disgusting shower they all are. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As if that wasn't bad enough, two stints at the DWP which has left the benefits system in chaos and disabled people losing their motability cars leading to many becoming housebound and unable to travel to work. Never mind the people who have been sanctioned and died on her watch. Then she lied to the Commons about a National Audit Office report. Possibly the only contender for the leadership to have lost her seat in Parliament at a General Election, and is only sitting there by dint of being parachuted into George Osborne's old seat. Esther McVey enters Downing Street for a job. The last time I mentioned her was above during the last but last but one (or summat) leadership contest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He campaigned to remain, admittedly, but he's now fronting the results of a vote that was partly a protest against him! Looks like he has just seen a bowl full of pigs in blankets be put on the buffet spread in the distance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
