No, I mean appointing unelected, ostensibly “expert”, people to the cabinet that will have no direct accountability and the opportunity for grifters to get their hands on the wheels of government.

Fair to say there are pros and cons to our system employing MPs who aren't experts (or even knowledgeable) about their subject, but the US has shown the consequences of the other extreme. Surely the answer lies in taking lower-key tasks off MP's shoulders with a sprinkling of experts from the Lords?

Wales was home for me for 5 years. It deserves better than to be a tool to push English nationalism. Its institutions deserve the respect of outlining policies and naming a prospective FM. Its people deserve more than to be riled up for the benefit of one grifter. I can see why you got angry!

Not great for high risk building developments that are grinding to a halt as a result of Building Safety Act delays. Government needs to work to speed up the new system before this comes in.

The ruling stated that this wasn’t a victory for any party, yet one party is hell bent on declaring victory snd using is as a cudgel to beat a vulnerable minority. This is such an emotional issue for everyone affected and Rowling’s instinct is triumphalist spite.

It’s in keeping with Poppy Day going over the top with commercialised tat. I think it will sadly also work to devalue our quiet respect for veterans and the armed forces.

Would imagine that a lot of this is punitive rather than actually addressing a problem. By far the biggest causes of death and destruction are cars and the attitude that roads belong to cars.

I'd honestly welcome anything on this stretch of road to calm the through traffic. I cycle my daughter to nursery this way as it is the only really viable route to Moseley from Pineapple Road (Alcester Rd is not appealing). Constantly overtaken by fast cars on the bends.
