The Ministerial Code

[southshorepool]

Whilst recognising that it's always been advisory, Ministers are no longer expected to resign if they break it. The final decision on what the consequences are rests with the PM. Interesting timing.

Another step on the slippery slope to fascism. Unaccountable government.

Accountable to whom then....the people? Johnson? This rag tag bunch of third rate politicians will be booted out at the next election. The Tories need to take a long, hard look at themselves.

The changes themselves are small. It's the rewritten foreward by Johnson that is worrying. He seems to be implying that accountability rests with him. It's very Putinesque.

Biden’s description of Johnson as a physical and emotional clone of Donald Trump, is becoming more accurate by the month .

Sadly there are still too many willing to vote for this imbecile and make excuses for his actions. His own MPs should have got rid of him long ago yet there are only a handful who seem to have any integrity.

Boris must have a big bet on Labour winning the next election.
