Thérèse Coffey MP the Health Secretary and Deputy PM.

[bitontheslide]

Cleverley is the new foreign secretary, pity his name couldnt be more appropriate

[joeysteele]

Therese Coffey is awful.
Shouldn't be an MP never mind a Minister.
Of Health too, that's an awful move sending out many wrong signals of this so called new government.

There's not much difference just some shuffling around.

I don't think it's a good judgement move putting Cleverley as Foreign Secretary.

This looks pretty poor and weak actually.
So much for cleaning up and a good new beginning.
It's like once upon a time.
Then, once upon a time again as a repeat.

Kwasi Kwarteng looks like he might actually be qualified for his job which is a rarity for sure

I don't mind him actually.

What is that awful Coffey woman doing

[The Slim Reaper]

As PM, she gets to hand out the jobs, which is fair enough. The same faces just shows what a terrible move it was for Johnson to get rid of any tory with a couple of brain cells, in 2019. No difference in thought, no policies, just same again with a different face. I hope she does well, because we need it, but it is hope rather than expectation.

A few of the former leadership contenders seem to be getting positions. I don't know if it's a good thing that she's not "afraid" for want of better word to have them on her cabinet? I guess the pool of capable ("capable") Tories is quite shallow.

BBC Text : [Truss's energy plans will be
funded with borrowing and the total cost
could be more than £150bn.
Cartoonist Matt wastes no time taking aim
at the plans, depicting a domestic scene
of a frustrated bill-payer saying:
"Doesn't anyone in this family ever switch
off a light? Today's children will end up
paying for this energy."]
