What a moron.
Wondering if the cabinet was hand-picked to make Borat look less dumb than we all know he is?

They expelled any minister who dared not follow their line on Brexit. Once that happens you’re left with a pretty shallow pool to choose from. Hence why this cabinet seems to have a particularly high number of incompetents.

Second rule of politics - again.
Once in power do everything to stay there.
Johnson simply got rid of his political opponents who might be future rivals for the leadership - simple as that.
Apart from maybe Gove, is there anyone even remotely looking like challenging Johnson no matter how big a buffoon he is?
And he's 4 years away from the next elections and has a 80 seat majority.
He's probably PM until the run up to the 2029 elections at least!
Price we all have to pay with Labour clubbing together to give Corbyn enough nominations to even stand for election for the next Labour leader following Ed Miliband (and even he was the wrong brother to be elected!!!).
Road to Hell and all that I guess.

The middle classes are all bragging on social media about how they have to do 14 days Quarantine after their Holiday. Telling us all how it wont affect their lifestyle as they all work remotely anyway.
All skyping from their auberge on the cote d`azur.
You are looked down upon now, by the middle classes, if you dont need to Quarantine after your Holiday.

Oh good. Was driving to Germany on the 12th, to see my sister. having to go via France only, and not using my usual Belgium/France/Luxembourg route.
If I drive through the infected countries, my social standing will be elevated. There's a silver lining in every cloud

Yes you should have a zoom meeting with all the others in your group. The middle classes enjoy the complaining more than they do the skiing.

The rest of us have to make do with the Yorkshire coast. Buying fish and chips in a hurricane and eating them in the car with all the windows steamed up. Listening to the raindrops on the roof, and suffering aerial muggings from the Seagulls.

I'm going to Scotland for a week when I come back, but you make Yorkshire sound so appealing.

You could buy a Yurt and go Glamping in Aberdeen.

Or an Eco Pod.

I used to live in Elgin many years ago, not too far from the Granite City, and its a really nice area, as remember it. (58 years ago). However, I did enough 'camping' when I was in the army, thanks. So sod that for a game of soldiers.@sunlight wrote:You could buy a Yurt and go Glamping in Aberdeen.

I had a brief torrid affair with a wonderful girl from Lossiemouth in 1973. Thanks for reminding me. Very happy memories of that part of the world.@gloswhite wrote:

Scotland is a bit like `Game of Thrones` but with Carlsberg Special Brew. I learned all about Scottish History from my Nans biscuit tins.

I seem to remember it was mainly Bagpipes and Castles. My Nan said they cant go fifteen minutes without calling someone a Bastard. I am sure thats not true though.@wanderlust wrote:

I remember Scottish shortbread biscuits as being exceptional quality.

"Imagine being an immigrant in Britain these days, being told that you need to integrate more, by people who spend their holidays pointing at a picture of egg and chips on a menu".

If Brexit happens and Scotland get their independance, Scotland may well choose to go it alone and enter the Eurovision Song Contest, which will not end well for anyone.

No she went back to Uni with me and was savvy enough to keep schtum around my girlfriend. Believe she became a marine biologist so you're not a million miles off the mark.
