Patel>Braverman>Sauron?
Worse, Cameron
James Stupidly is replacing Cruella, the pig fucker is replacing Stupidly.
MP for Braintree. You couldn’t make this up.
Seriously, if I wrote a comedy in which all of this happened, people would say it was unrealistic.

I thing the differences are too small to distinguish clearly.
Cthuhlu. Why go for a lesser evil?
Least we’d get the control over our waters like we were promised!..and gills don’t forget the gills
Ex-PM David Cameron is made foreign secretary in a shock move as Rishi Sunak reshuffles his cabinet
That motherfucker?! Back again?
I’m not sure he should be allowed to reshuffle from the discard pile.
Let’s face it, it’s all discards in his cabinet. The real pisser in this instance is that Cameron gets a lifetime baronetcy out of the deal.
Well, Rishi’s draw pile was down to 0, so he reshuffled the discard pile.
What the actual fck! Regardless of your view of brexit, him fcking off for the rest of those c*nts to pretend to have an idea of sorting out his mess tells us all we need to know about his character
Next will be the reanimated corpse of Margaret fcking Thatcher with AI designed by Elon fcking Musk
Made a mess, ran away, humming a jaunty little tune as he did so. Shitcunt.
Already filthy rich by birth. Got his PM pension and now going to get even more public money for fucking up the country’s image internationally even more. But the benefits cheats and disabled people are the problems obviously…

Considering he was in favor of remaining and he promised a referendum because a large enough proportion of the population wanted to voice their opinion on the subject, I don’t think he was the right person to negotiate the terms of separation.
Then again it was non-binding so instead of promising to just go with whatever the population voted for he should have promised to negotiate the terms of separation and then hold a second referendum to know if people agreed to those terms or preferred to stay.
David, Cameron lost because he didn’t have a plan B.
He’s too damn arrogant and think assume he could possibly lose. Not exactly great qualities in a politician.
I lived through the Thatcher years and never imagined I’d see the day when I look back on her with anything other than hatred. But at least she believed in something, stood for something, and wasn’t just lining her pockets.
I was joking but also got depressed when I thought of that as some tories would actually love that. I agree that is the slight glimmer of a positive about her. At least you can have a debate with someone who has a view on something if their goal is still improve the UK, even if misguided.
I feel the same about Theresa May, she did a really good interview on the Leading podcast with Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart and really put across that she believes in what she’s doing, even if she’s completely and utterly wrong and was an absolutely terrible Home Secretary and prime minister (remember strong and stable, lol.)
I kind of respect her for standing by her convictions, and would rather have her back than pig fucker Cameron and the rest
That motherfucker
I think the correct term is pigfucker
For anyone new to British politics, Maultasche isn’t being figurative…
protect the pigs
Let’s hope he promises to stick around again…
David? Daviiid? curtain wafts in front of open window
Saw an article the other day saying she had the full support of the PM.
Knew she’d be gone within a week, because that’s what always happens.
Still makes me chuckle how increasinly bad “chaos with Ed Milliband” and “Strong and Stable” sound as the Tory goverment goes on.
Every accusation a confession, with conservatives.
Fuckity bye!
I’ll always boost/upvote a solid Malcolm Tucker reference :)
About fucking time.
I know right, I can’t remember a more cruel and callous Home Secretary
Cruella Braverman.
I always preferred Suella De Vil.
Fun fact: her name isn’t actually Suella, it’s Sue Ellen Braverman. Suella was a choice. She chooses to self-identify as a name that rhymes with Cruella.
Fun fact - she was named Sue Ellen after the Dallas soap opera character.
Sue Braverman.
That’s not a bad idea actually
I assume Priti Patel’ll be next then.
And it’s not for lack of competition.
Now brace yourselves for the absolute monster that replaces her.
Enoch Powell’s head in a jar, Futurama style.
Apparently it’s going to be James Cleverley.
Which I guess is an improvement because at least he pull the party line. He doesn’t care what that is. He’ll just do what he’s instructed.
they can’t keep their goverment in line and together, yet we still don’t get a general election.
Is he moving his entire cabinet around to make it look like he’s not merely firing his Home Sec?
With Cameron seen walking in, this looks more like he’s setting up an election cabinet.
Wishi rishi looked weak with her about and weak with her gone. Hopefully she starts her own Britannia party and splits the tories into irrelevance.
All I want for Christmas is the death of the Conservative Party 🤞🤞🤞
Cameron isnt an MP and he isnt a lord he should not be serving in the role as an elected member of parliment imo
They’re making him a lord
Fucking christ
Still isnt an elected representiative of the people
We don’t need elections where we’re headed…

Lord, seemed like a good idea at the time, Cameron
That’s only a convention. The government only needs the support of parliament, they don’t need to be members of parliament or house of lords.
This is why we need proper democratic reform and a proper written constitution.
He became a lord after resigning as PM years ago, didn’t he?
He can’t make himself a lord in his own honors list. There are at least some protections.
David Cameron getting back I to government!?!
He is better than most of their more recent seat warmers I guess…
He started this whole crap show. Because he was scared of losing votes to UKIP, he held that dumb referendum, and that set in motion the events that led to Cruella (Johnson in power purging anyone in the party who didn’t bow down to his brexit ideology). Cameron can do one, he’s worse than Johnson in my eyes.
The government is effectively acting like it’s the opposition, while the opposition is acting like it’s in government.
The whole thing’s a shit show.
TBF I left the UK years ago, and find the country increasingly alien as the years go by. Like a mirror universe country replaced the one I used to know.
Where did you go?
He wasn’t intentionally bad though, he just made a (huge) miscalculation about how much the leave campaign were willing to lie.
A lot of people were making the same miscalculation. You have to remember this was around the same time as Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. It wasn’t widely known just how powerful that tactic really was yet. A lot of people were laughing at the obvious bullshit, confident that it’ll never fly, but were oblivious as to just how many were buying into it.
Why did he leave then straight away and dissappear from public life? He’s completely arrogant and only cares about power. Why didn’t he have a plan is it did go wrong? He’s grossly incompetent. Any half decent government should prepare plans for even unlikely situations if they are possible and would cause so much damage.
To be fair, having a pro remain leader in charge of Brexit would have pissed of the Brexit crowd. Probably would have given a better outcome though.
If he came out and said he will follow the will of the people and appoint a pro brexit person to lead a new dept and also lead negotiations, I think he could’ve got away with it. At least he could’ve seen through a transition to a new govt rather than just abandon it everything.
Maybe he shouldn’t have pissed off the brexit crowd with those govt paid leaflets and the support he gave. He should’ve planned something for what would happen if the vote didn’t go his way. We could’ve at least figured out what type of brexit the country wanted as a binary yes - no was not enough.
I see what you mean though, maybe it was just never possible and it was his only option. I just think he caused the most damage to this country ever and somehow is getting away with it with seemingly no consequences. No matter what, he is so linked to this situation in a negative way he should not be in politics anymore, either as a cabinet member or lord
No matter what he wanted it probably would’ve gone worse for him to have remained. Can you imagine what the ERG would have attempted had he stayed? They only just about let May get in.
Then it’s fine that he left but he shouldn’t be allowed back in surely?
Why not? Enough time has passed now that the aftermath, or at least the immediate aftermath, has all been handled.
He was a Eurosceptic masquerading as a pro-EU campaigner. He gambled his power with different referenda (AV in 2011, Scottish independence in 2014, and the UK self-sanction in 2016).
He looks competent, but he’s directly and indirectly caused so much harm to this country.
He was a Eurosceptic masquerading as a pro-EU campaigner
I don’t think there’s much evidence that suggests that. What he was, was complacent about Remain’s chances of success - and he wasnt the only one.
It was intentionally bad. It was party over country, as usual for the Tories. And then he did a runner when he lost. Filthy piece of toerag, he’s got a nerve showing his face in government again.
I’m not sure that calling a referendum to let the voters choose can be considered bad. (The result was though)
I doubt it he has no conviction or staying power.
He had a pretty strong conviction on staying in the EU. He only delivered the referendum because he thought it would shut up the Leave crowd. He resigned immediately after.
To be honest, “Suella” sounds a bit too much like a brand of washing up liquid
Faith in humanity slightly restored.
By self serving politicians serving their own interests? That bar is pretty low…
Not having a go at you, I get grasping at any silver lining we think we can see, but don’t think for a second any of this is happening because any of them give a shit about the homeless people or immigrants and asylum seekers who she’s openly attacked, those and other marginalised groups aren’t gaining anything here…
I was thinking more along the lines of: it’s probably a sign their pollsters have found that maybe most of the British public don’t much like her “kill the poor” opinions after all?
Honestly? Doubt it… What most of the public think has never really concerned them before, and they are still very much the party for killing the poor (or at least severely punishing us for existing to serve them).
@DessertStorms sorry to hear that. I feel your pain. My country just voted in a conservative government too.
Oh man that’s bad news. Let us know if there’s anything we can do to help. I’m sick of these lying bastards wherever that are.
My condolences, and solidarity.
