That was my point. None of our modern politicians are any good at all. They are professional politicians and everything they touch they fuck up.

So? He is removing the wheat from the chaff. I doubt there is much wheat where he is now. He has less power of people than he did in business.

He has had a excellent and distinguished career in the civil service. They will say the exact same thing about May, Corbyn, Mandelson and all the others. It means nothing.

I agree he has a duty to report his views on whomever he meets. That is part of his job.

Agree and they should be prosecuted and sacked.

Boris is a politician. IMO no different from the rest so I'm not expecting much. It would be good though for him to get some ideas from Trump. At least trump knows how to get things done.

Kimmy boy would be totally useless as the PM but I feel the same about Boris and Hunt although I think their experience of the sewers will put them in a better position.

Agree. However to discuss is to learn.
