I also really hate his green agenda, but hopefully covid 19 has put an end to that nonsense.

Does one not think in any National Emergency the Government plus the leaders of the 2nd and 3rd largest Opposition Parties are included in the team dealing with it? With Bojo off the scene at the most strategic moment the Government was wafer thin and collective decision making has not had the desired effect.

The political master within the gov't is Cummngs and Johnson is merely the vehicle whom he operates through
As for leadership then he fails on so many qualities ... reliability; foresight; accumen ... he has been fortunate that opposition on his own side and the opposition has been terribly weak |

Yes that's exactly what I thought when the gallivanting cmo turned up at the excruciating press conference.

Jenrick still there, it's embarrassing beyond belief.

Who is bothered about Robert, that's right, chit chat and twatter

By:
I am bothered, a traditional conservative voter.
|
|
By:
The devolved countries are just following the Westminster lead. Looking at the quality of their CMOs yesterday, I'm unsurprised.
|
|
By:
Sturgeon chopped her cmo. Jenrick did far worse but he is still there. That is ineptitude in the conservative party.
|
|
By:
She resigned after being given no option. The original plan was to support the cmo staying in situ.
|
|
By:
She was chopped by a true leader. If the conservative party had a leader Jenrick would be gone too.
|
|
By:
After the most uncomfortable press conference anyone could probably remember.
|
|
By:
As I said, only chit chat and twatter are bothered about Robert.
|
|
By:
She was chopped by the leader, a leader that is different class from anything we have.

Patel is not as comfortable doing press conferences as she is in parliament or one on one interviews. while it's not unusual that the home sec would update us with crime numbers, her delivery could be improved.
|
|
By:
Lets see how she gets on at the bullying employment tribunal. Another one only in cabinet because of her brexit views. Even I was surprised she got back after being sacked by May.
|
|
By:
Personally I feel it's good to see a government and home sec that really backs the police. I'm not happy that the grooming gang report is still not being published.
|
|
By:
I would expect any government and home secretary to always back the police. Patel probably trying to delay everything as she knows she is busted if she loses the bullying employment tribunal.
|
|
By:
On the surface yes, but I feel this administration wants to properly support the police with substance. Of course covid 19 has changed the course of events.
|
|
By:
I am certain they wish to support the police but Patel is a poor choice, a very poor choice given her previous record of bullying/attempted suicides by staff in previous government departments, plus being previously sacked for going behind the prime ministers back. Boris must have decided that her brexit views meant she would be loyal to him under any circumstance.
|
|
By:
Having said that, her bullying employment tribunal opponent failed to exhaust all disciplinary procedures before quitting. That may save her.
|
|
By:
I don't know if you were reading the threads on here at the time, but I was explaining to someone that you need to give the employer an opportunity to act before quitting and claiming constructive dismissal. I have a fair amount of experience in this area, but not at an executive level. However he has the means to employ legal advice that can twist legislation to their benefit. I don't know for sure obviously, in my opinion most likely Rutnam had his capabilities exposed rather than being bullied, but it doesn't mean he can't win his case.
|
|
By:
These cases don't often go to tribunal as it's very difficult for the defendant to win, and they are expensive to defend. Claimants are usually offered a payout in exchange for a nda, not because they have a good case but it's the lesser of two evils.
|
|
By:
Maybe Rutnam was none too pleased to be guided by an ethnic. Anyway, ACAS beckons.
|
|
By:
I have acted for someone in an employment tribunal, simply because it was a family friend and I previously had my own business. Being retired, I was a lot cheaper than a lawyer, ie zilch. The basic details are on the politics forum. When two parties eventually reach the employment tribunal, it has to be shown and proved that both parties followed disciplinary procedures, exhausting any appeal process. They then have to use ACAS in order to try and resolve a financial settlement. If this fails, an employment tribunal takes place.
|
|
By:
Indeed, a payoff is still odds on, which was always his aim of course.
|
|
By:
Well, that is hard to say because he claims he was offered a financial settlement, which he declined.
|
|
By:
Presumably he is gambling for more. I read somewhere the amount that can be given in a payoff in the civil service has been limited quite recently.
|
|
By:
He also wants revenge of course!
