Well, it’s not been much of a cabinet reshuffle so far … more sort of replacing the people who’ve resigned because El Gordo is such a dick.
The Defence Secretary, John Hutton, has resigned and is yet to be replaced. Alan Johnson has been made Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper has been made DWP secretary and Alan Sugar has been made “enterprise czar” which will explain his public support for El Gordo this morning. In fact, I listened to my crooked MP, David Wright, this morning claiming that Liebour isn’t dead yet and El Gordo has a broad base of support based solely on the fact Alan Sugar praised him. If the only people they can find to publicly support El Gordo are Fatty Prescott, a back bench nobody and a c-list celebrity who he’s just given a job to, Gordo’s position is more desperate than many people thought!

is there any point in having a Secretary of State for Scotland, in Westminster?
He has no actual power, no actual department and no actual budget to spend, wht is his purpose, is it just to bouy up the PM?
I like John Prescott, he’s old school but he’s cool, in a faux retro kinda way
sorry, i got distracted, anyway, he, Sec for Scot, gets paid more than an ordinary MP and can probably claim more because of ministerial duties, surely in this era of belt tightening, you could just give him a bus shelter and 3 litre bottle of brain melt cider?
he should be a minor guy at…..the Home office maybe? or FCO?
i gather it is the same for the Welsh and NI ministers?
listening to him live at 17:10, he sounds like some foreign leader talking about abroad somewhere, he does’nt soulnd like someone who is in charge or even knows what is going on in my country
