Jehovah on a jet-ski. Braverman should never be within a thousand fucking miles of any government job . Especially not Home Secretary.

A bunch of 3rd hand second stringers led by man who has only stood in 1 contested leadership contest, which he was thrashed in.

Whatever bounce the Tories may get from him simply not being Johnson or Truss, he seems determined to undo by appointing absolute imbeciles that are widely loathed.

Sane ones in economic portfolios, loons to call mayhem otherwise.

Brandon Lewis constructively settled a strike, then get replaced by Raab.

Security Breach Braverman is a disposable sop to the party nutters (I hope).

Generally it looks like:

New manager, but the same useless donkeys out on the pitch.

Badenoch has got Trade and equalities. This is going to be awful.

Looks like he's a hostage to the party. Keep the nutters happy or they'll finish him.

As Tubby said: Looks in the "Culture War" portfolios.

It sounds like a desperate attempt to keep the Tory far right onside.
Sunak is making Cameron's mistake by feeding the crocodile.

Be interesting to see what happens when Braverman wants to put the skids on any increased immigration but Hunt needs it to prevent the economy tanking even further.

It’s kicked the can down the road all of 5 mm.

This is why the ERG didn't endorse anyone; this way whoever who they could be held to ransom.

Looks like a fairly dull cabinet with Braverman just thrown in to appease the right wing and to distract attention away from the inevitable cuts. I've lost count of all the Education Secretaries we have had in the last 6 months but the fact that there is no big hitter at Education would suggests the department will be getting its budget either cut or frozen. I think the same can also be said of Health.

Anti gay and anti green from what I see.

I assume fracking stays then, apparently he polls well with the Lib Dems, he won’t for long.

By reinstating Braverman, Sunak could be shaping up to be a worse PM than Truss. Who dealt with Swellin in an impressively firm manner. Must be an unpleasant Paul Keating insult to describe what a gutless turd Sunak is.

Johnson redux at PMQs. Apparently coached by Gove.

No answers to some very pertinent questions.

Still bringing up Corbyn.

How I wish that cunt had never come near the Labour Party...

Yeah, get everything back to those staples: Corbyn, Brexit, north London, strikes, law and order, yah boo sucks.

Only 15,000 extra police officers, though. I'm waiting to see how many hospitals and nurses he inevitably mentions.

Sunak’s promise of a more grownup tone at PMQs lasted two minutes. He’s just shouting lines from Boris Johnson’s waste paper basket. In the voice of Will from the Inbetweeners while pissed.
Less ability to stamp his authority than Liz Truss and does Boris badly.

For crying out loud, bad as Corbyn was, he didn't leak fucking documents.

Also, "It was 3 years ago, it doesn't matter" vs "Just 3 years ago that lot were...".
