The government passed over 171 candidates to pick a Bullingdon Club "chum" of Boris Johnson's to sit on a sleaze watchdog, ministers have admitted.
Ewen Fergusson, a member of Oxford’s infamous dining club at the same time as the prime minister, was handed the role last month – a decision branded "pathetic" by the committee's former chair.
In an answer to a written parliamentary question from Labour, Cabinet Office minister Chloe Smith said the government had received 173 applications for the two vacancies on the committee.
A man who has never had to suffer consequences for anything in his entire life. His school report was spot on.
Why does he have to be such a relentless cunt all the time? This was a memorial service for dead police officers. "Oh, I'll do a funny umbrella joke and yuck it up". He thinks life is a fucking cartoon.
It's a lot of teaching assistants.
More money well spent.
"Look at what we've done already. We've transitioned away from coal in my lifetime,"
"Thanks to Margaret Thatcher, who closed so many coal mines across the country, we had a big early start and we're now moving rapidly away from coal altogether."
Mr Johnson is reported to have added: "I thought that would get you going."
or "he is such a lad" Cons Vote +2That quote should fucking destroy their vote in the old mining areas. Such a fucking wanker.
Fuck me it could be Priti Patel couldn't it, Boris makes me angry but the thought of that is quite chilling.I don't think he'll run again, this is too much like hard work and he'd much rather write shit books/columns and make deeply unfunny speeches for more money than he makes as PM. He'll be 60 by the time this term is due to end. Fairly likely given his track record he'll have another divorce to pay for by then.
I'd say this is a good thing but there are no grown ups left to take over from him, he and Megamind Dom got rid of the few they had.
Non Conservatives only attack her because she’s so popular (Andrew Bridgen).Fuck me it could be Priti Patel couldn't it, Boris makes me angry but the thought of that is quite chilling.
She disappears for months on end, she did during the first Covid lockdown after a car crash press conference. When you govern by populist soundbites you don't need to be overly visible.Non Conservatives only attack her because she’s so popular (Andrew Bridgen).
Has she been since Tyrone Mings had a pop at her?
