Have you seen the make-up of Boris’s new Cabinet? It is a complete right-wing takeover....Pritti Patel as Home Secretary who wants the death penalty restored for instance, and Dominic Cummings who was the architect of the Leave campaign as chief advisor...I’m just hoping some of the sacked and resigned ex cabinet , now on the backbenches will bear a grudge and block him.

We are often told we need more women in govt. Well we have Priti Patel, hard line Brexiteer and as you say an advocate of bringing back the death penalty. She was previously kicked out of govt for funneling foreign aid to the Israeli army.
If this is an example of women in politics, more men please 🙂 [msn.com]
More info on MS Patel :-

I don’t think it’s her gender that is the problem and it is stupid to suggest that right wing ideology is more likely in women than men. She just happens to have particularly loathsome political views which most of her male cabinet colleagues also share.

@Marionville I didn't suggest that for a minute. Just a flippant remark. Didn't you see the smiley

@Moravian Of course..but this current cabinet is beyond a joking matter! 😁

@Marionville They certainly are a scary bunch, never heard of the new Scottish secretary and I don't see why we need one anyway with a devolved parliament. I don't see a NI secretary mentioned . is that because of direct rule ?

@Moravian No we have one...he was in Derry and Belfast today...he is Julian Smith, he was Chief Whip under Theresa May...close to the DUP, he attended their conference last year,

It's amazing how wide the overton windows is these days. I half expect it to crack in the middle and exclude only the middle ground.

It is quite horrifying. Far to the right even of Margaret Thatcher. The onoy good thing about it is that Johnson has created a lot of enemies doing this and will divide the Conservatives even further.

I’m counting on it!

We all are counting on it.

It certainly is a scary mix. Today many pundits are saying this is a 100 day government, with just the one purpose of taking the UK out of Europe. But there seem to be a growing number of MPs who will be prepared to use any means to stop it. Interesting but worrying times.

This government represents me in no way whatsoever!

@Marionville Dreadful bunch

Posted by MattHardyA Boris promise is just a lie that hasn't happened yet. Whatever Sue Grey says, no way is Boris going to admit he lied and resign.

Posted by HawkeyeNew to this group, thanks for having me :) Thought I would share something that has had my poor wee atheist brain turning for a few days (the article is a few days old).

Posted by webspider555I’m beginning to wonder whether our government is just incompetent or are all these things happening just to get us in a rage arguing amongst ourselves.
