Seeing as Surgical has seen fit to give this cretin a Cabinet post I think it's time he had his own thread.

Secretary of State for Education.

Education.

Oh. My. Fucking. God!


<where's the facepalm smiley when you need it?>

Jimmy the Brain has gone to Foreign.

Yes, he will be the outward face of this country in the halls of power all over the planet...

Education has gone to Malthouse. A proper slap in the face for kids and educators throughout the land...

Ah. I was taken in by fake news. Still, sticking him in *any* Cabinet post is worthy of an OMFG and a facepalm.

It's very confusing, but he was SofS (Ed) for a few weeks after the Buntergate resignations. He didn't actually do anything that I know of.

Kay Burley is interviewing this spectacularly unintelligent pile of dung. To a question about economic growth and the IMF's prediction that Tory policies will make 2023 feel like a recession, Mr bRaneS started his answer with "Well, the Labour Party are trying to create this negative narrative and this is why we go on about the anti-growth coalition.. "

I give up. It's obvious to even a brain-damaged earthworm that the economy is in a parlous state and the policies announced in the mini budget will only make things worse, and this cunt (who is our Foreign Secretary for some unfathomable reason) is telling the country that everything would be tickety-boo if only Labour would stop talking the economy down.

It's like that thing about shit Brexit being our fault because we didn't "believe" hard enough

Bad as it is now, another two years of these cretins and the country will be totally fucked for at least a generation.

This bloke's a bit of a twat

The interview was an absolute disaster. He had no comeback from being played his own words, and then did a “let me finish!” gambit to give the impression he wasn’t being allowed to speak. Only Robinson called his bluff and let him go ahead, and lo and behold he had nothing else to say.

He said Truss’s promise had been made “in response to the announcement that was made at the time”

I'll need to remember that one.

As with the parties and as with Pincher and literally anything else those who caused it don’t get to draw a line under it.

Round and round and round he goes, where he stops, nobody knows...

They may as well just say “Please give me a job - I’ll suck up real good”

Or I'll send my boys round.

I've just seen this utter tit, live on Sky News, totally straight-faced, say Starmer wouldn't understand the NI negotiations.

What is he on?

If he means Starmer wouldn’t understand why the Tories have had to renegotiate a deal that various previous PMs and brexit secretaries have all allegedly sorted out then resigned over because it was all wrong before claiming the next person who had done the same thing or worse had sorted it, only to then say that was all wrong too and they would have done it differently if it was their job (but when it actually was their job, they didn’t do anything differently at all assuming they did anything whatsoever, and they often didn’t), then yes I’ll give him that because I don’t think *anyone* understands that.

James has been learning lots of new brainy cool stuff from FO mandarins and is feeling very clever as result.

At £12,000 per flying hour he'd better come back with world peace and a cure for cancer

I do like how when he is asked anything slightly harder than “what is your name” he pulls that disgruntled look like the interviewer called him a “cockwobble” or something.

So, here he is then.

I, for one, home our new home secretary is less disruptive hen the old one.

I don't expect a great performance, but reflect that we might have got Anderson.
