Joining a cabinet of chaos.

Penny Mordaunt replaces Priti Patel 

Theresa May has chosen another non entity to join her cabinet. It seems that Mordant's only qualifications for the Department for International Development position are that she will maintain the gender balance of the Prime Ministers fractured cabinet and that she was a Leave campaigner in the EU referendum. Talent and competency for a ministry have no place in today's government, where  clinging to office is the Prime Ministers over riding consideration.

With two ministers gone in less than seven days, and where more ministers are either under investigation or prone to increasing numbers of gaffes and errors of judgement that their positions are to all intents and purposes now untenable, cabinet meetings will soon be attended only those MP's who will prop up Theresa May's position rather than provide drive and leadership to a ministerial post. Even then, May is in trouble as the MP's who are likely to  provide her with personal support are diminishing as their numbers grow fewer every day as each new crisis unfolds.This is not the way to run the country and government, especially when the country is supposed to be engaged in negotiations to leave the European Union.The scandals, sleaze and conspiracies are dominating the agenda leaving no room or time for anything else, including Brexit.

The clock is running down and this incompetent government with its lame duck inept Prime Minister, is jeopardizing our future for generations to come, in pursuit of their own ambitions

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

Plemont development or return to nature?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey- A date has been set for a public inquiry into plans for Plemont Headland. This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.

The Parliamentary Labour Party conspirators are hatching another coup.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-labour-leadership-rebel-mps-a7202641.html Labour MPs plan for Corbyn victory and plot how to confront an emboldened leader Even for the "Independent", the number and use of unnamed anonymous "sources" in this article is quite astonishing. However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to
