I note that the Chancellor, Nadhim Zahaw has been rather huredly changing his history on Wikipedia! He is eraising all references of his support of Owen Paterson!
I suspect he is looking to remain in post after the weekend. This is the same man who was caught claiming expenses to heat his stables!
He seems to think Wikipedia is the only reference to his past errors! You can’t just erase the past few years of your life. They tell a story, the story of who you were and most likely still are.
Politicians rarely have a ‘road to Damascus ‘ experience. Let’s be honest most are Party first Politicians eager to climb the greasy pole!
I have little trust in Liz Truss but she at least has so far not tried to erase her past beliefs. My cautions about her are much more mundane, she doesn’t seem to have many brain cells. Too many U-turns. She appears to be a follower rather than a Leader. Her relationship to the ERG worries me.
You know the ERG, the Party within the Party that actually runs the Tory Party! But as I said the other day, the jury is still out. I await like others to see if she really does have a mind of her own and has the courage to run with it.
I see Boris is on a farewell tour saying “we did it” referring to Brexit of course.
Have we really?
To my mind, he only tinkered around the edges and made a mess of that too.
The ‘Oven ready Protocol ‘ hasn’t exactly worked out well.
September and October will be interesting months for several reasons, non more so than for Scotland.
