I’m trying to rack my brains for the last time a non MP got parachuted into such a lofty position. Peter Mandelson perhaps? |  |

Yiu could well be right.
They will make Cameron a Lord.
I have much bile for him for giving us a referendum that he never thought would see a leave vote .
He got out of town quick before the flack hit . | |

Seems to me that Sunak is running out of options, another poised to follow May, BJ and Truss chucked out onto the scrap heap and we'll have another unelected PM, before the next GE.
Hunt intent on hitting the vulnerable and the disabled then, easy targets aren't they, needs to look closer at his Tory benefactors and see what they are continuing to hide and cheat the system. This is the most reckless useless Government I've ever known.

I don’t see things as you do Stev.
I just believe they are utterly insouciant even though Polls suggest next election will see them blitzed .
Nobody should expect a Starmer govt to assuage our fears as his band of brothers are just as divided .It’s just now they don’t have to do anything to win an election simply to keep Schaumburg and let them eat themselves .
People would like to see some fire in the eyes and neither Starmer nor Sunak has it.
May was the worst though but I do admit to having a more carnal view of her  | |

Never has Cromwell's speech to Parliament all those years ago been so relevant today , I include Cardiff's branch of incompetents
"It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place,
which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice.
Ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government.
Ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.
Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess?
Ye have no more religion than my horse. Gold is your God. Which of you have not bartered your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?
Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defiled this sacred place, and turned the Lord's temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices?
Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation. You were deputed here by the people to get grievances redressed, are yourselves become the greatest grievance.
Your country therefore calls upon me to cleanse this Augean stable, by putting a final period to your iniquitous proceedings in this House; and which by God's help, and the strength he has given me, I am now come to do.
I command ye therefore, upon the peril of your lives, to depart immediately out of this place.
Go, get you out! Make haste! Ye venal slaves be gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.
In the name of God, go! " | |

This is a powerful speech and is oft quoted but always for the wrong reasons. The speech portrays him as a protector of parliament and democracy and good behaviour but what he’s actually doing is dissolving the parliament by gunpoint and replacing them with a small hand picked selection of his loyal religious nut job army mates. | |

All of which is true but regardless of his motives ( which were divisive in the extreme) I couldn't think of any other speech /moment in our history which sums up todays politics. PPE , Expenses ,scandals jobs for the boys & girls, etc | |

Bit like Russian then nobody in Russia is elected.
All 28 EU commissioners are appointed not elected as is the EU President.
Even in the USA none of the main secretary of States are appointed from the Senate or Congress they are Presidential appointments. [Post edited 13 Nov 2023 18:08]

More whataboutery.
This isn’t about Russia, the EU or the US - it’s about the U.K. The tradition in the U.K. is that Ministers in charge of major departments such as the HO or FO are always MP’s, the last non MP to occupy the role of Foreign Minister was Lord Carrington in 1979.
I’m shocked Cameron is back. There was a big cloud over him re the Greensill lobbying and he’s just been parachuted back in. This suggests to me Sunak is in trouble and that he knows it, he’s gone for a consensus figure to build bridges after sacking Braverman and I dare say the I’ll feeling between Noris and Cameron will put Boris on the back foot.
More sleaze. | | | |

They are all elected in their respective countries.There’s no other way it can be done. Do you want to vote in the French election.
The US system is hardly one to be emulated. They have the electoral college | | | |

It is the doing of Douggie Smith, a very powerful politics person who keeps a very low profile from social media Etc, INFO:Smith helped run Fever Parties for around five years from 1998, which organised sex parties for up to 50 couples per session for rich people in London. so has a lot of dirt to dish, still Sunaks advisor today. | | | |

I just watched JRM on Channel 4 News, he appeared to be very very happy with todays developments. I suspect Cameron’s return will see the Conservatives try to move back towards to the centre ground and it starting to kick off between the right and centre even more than it has been. Jenkyns has already submitted a letter to the 1922 Committee. | | | |

Cromwell was a monster.
The exact death toll of the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland is unknown however their have been different estimates of how many people died from the conflict.
According to William Petty. nearly 618,000 people or about 40% of the country's pre-war population died. Modern estimates put the toll at closer to 20% and their was also some fifty thousand Irish people who were sold as indentured labourers under the English Commonwealth regime.
