Get rid of the Russian and the 'et bit and you would be correct.
The Serbian you-tuber he posted certainly is.
Nah. Come on , have you seen the damage Russian hackers and bots can do? Bathbod couldn't damage a paper bag with a hosepipe

Keeps you all on your toes I guess rather than the massive "LoveIn" for Volodymyr Zelenskyy .
Get your bets in. Burnham lasts over/under 23.5 months.

I hope he does well. If he does what he says and concentrates on people rather than policies he should do. Too often politicians look at the policy but if he's going to run the Makerfield test, it will make a difference. Changing Vat on energy and increasing the tax allowance will make an immediate difference to the man/woman on the street. Personally I'd like him to look at the 40% allowance but that's probably asking too much

Burnham busy sacking everyone. While I get everyone wants their own team the churn is nuts and helps explain why so much of the country is a shambles.
11 Justice Secretaries in 10 years. Whoever takes over from Reeves will be our 7th Chancellor in the 2020s.

On the other hand gotta love the trolling of John Healey first and then calling Milliband/Mahmood at the same time.
Looks like half sacking/half quitting. So hard to tell.

That's why you have the civil service. Burnham may keep some but he can't keep those in areas he wants to change. Imagine Reeves being told to reduce the power of the Treasury
If its Healy or MIliband both worked for Blair/Brown in the treasury.
Burnham worked for Brown iirc.
Yeah the real question is more on Foreign Affairs. Disappointed Mahmood will have some kind of job.
I really wanted Mahmood to stay at HO. She's been good for us, at least we don't have ministers bullying staff anymore.
Her policies were not aligned to a center-left governement.
John Healey Chancellor shocker!
They are aligned to a pragmatic, Blairite government. Immigration is down, boats are fewer. That shuts up the nutters for a bit. Her other policies aren't bad: extending face recognition, age estimation etc. She's not exactly going down the ICE route.
Really didn't see Healy coming as Chancellor
Milliband as Foreign Secretary
Trump wont like him at all.

Really should've been Starmer as Foreign Secretary (though I do understand why he's not)
I feel like immigration transcends party lines in the public opinion (plus I also question whether immigration is really a left vs right issue)
While I agree with this, I would be very interested to see how well her policies align with the voters/members wishes

Yeah cant help but feel hed be a stop choice at a later reshuffle. Rumours are things like NATO Secretary General (although a long way off for being free) or something similar could be a role for him.
And this is what I was hoping for: what do the general public think, not does the policy fit. Despite what Farage would have you think immigration isn't the top concern but it's up there.
Give lower earners more money, they'll spend rather than save and the economy does better.
There's a petty bit of me thinks good but the pragmatic me knows we have to try to get on with Trump
Healey for (edit) chancellor … that’s a curveball. I guess it circumvents any responsibility for Burnham when it comes to defence spending, if Healey wants more money for the military he can find it himself.
What makes it more delicious, he had offered Rachel Reeves the role of Defense Secretary so she would be begging for money from the man who resigned because he couldn't beg enough money from her.
It's like one of those couple therapy exercises where you have to argue the other side of the blazing row you had.
Reeves didn't take the job, so that part didn't quite work out

As was mentioned on the radio, it's grand having a PM making promises for 10 year plans when the average time in office for a PM now is just a shade over 1 year...
Part of the reason we have so many problems is because there is so much uncertainty over where the country will be going from one year to the next.

Defence Sec for Wes. Good with knives so appropriate.
It's hard to **** up as well. Defence is a shambles at the moment so it can only improve.

Rayner feels like a PR disaster despite being cleared of wrongdoing/eventually paying the tax, and despite whether you think she'd be good in the role
Streeting as Defence Sec is the worst one though

I don't think Farage has ever been anti-managed immigration. My mother arrived in this country from the Commonwealth on a ship in 1957. She spent 30+ years workng in NHS.
What increasingly is causing great issue with a growing majority of the population in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales is mass illegal immigration of unidentified young men from culture that do not share common values with existing taxpaying residents.
The Governments that have allowed and encouraged this policy have a lot to answer to these people. They need to explain their motivations and how this benefits United Kingdom.
Is that what you mean Tomma?
