    Default If you were PM of the UK.....

    who would you have in your cabinet?

    Choose
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    I thought it would be called 'Fantasy Government', but then I realised that was what it always has been, in my lifetime anyway.

    Now do you mean who'd be on the team, or who'd be locked up in the cupboard under the stairs???

    I'd definitely have Boris Johnson in there somewhere. Probably Foreign Secretary...

    I'd have him as the butler, or court jester. He could do a double-act with that other buffoon, Prescot.

    It would be rather fun to create a nightmare cabinet. Martin McGuiness for Defence Secretary, for example. (Although I suspect he would perhaps have the best military background for the post.)

    If you do a “Print Screen” then open (just about any program, I like to use photoshop, but it will work in ms word or even…) “Paint” and choose edit/paste (or just control “V”) you get the printed screen. Manipulate as you like then do a “Save as…” and Ta-Da!

    McGuinness prefers education.

    @Scurvy - I think Boris' skills are particularly suited to foreign affairs... remember Papua New Guinea
