ICTJohnboy Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Yes Minister was brilliant. I can appreciate it more now, than when it was in its prime. Sir Humphrey Appleby Minister, two basic rules of government: Never look into anything you don't have to. And never set up an enquiry unless you know in advance what its findings will be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Nearly a year since the transition period ended as we are still transitioning for the foreseeable future. Covid covering lots of the cracks including and rather unbelievably the press buying Lord Frost's bullshit about vaccine passports rather than the article 16 corner he painted himself into, the same corner Lizz Truss seems to have skipped any sort of consideration on and gone into the corner Frost escaped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was any justice it would be by then unemployed Tory MPs, MSPs and Councillors, with a handful of members of the Royal Family thrown in for good measure, but somehow I have my doubts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
