is it all going pear shaped?

 


Well it's been such a big fortnight in the groan up world of politics it would of been difficult to had predicted what was going to be around the corner beyond the inability of the government with a massive commons majority to get done what it's leader and Prime Minister wishes.
 
From votes that would of been lost requiring 180 degree turn arounds to losing the deputy Prime Minister for being less than entirely truthful about just how much Stamp Duty she should of paid on her third home following on from the less than accurate work experience details on her Political C.V. the Chancellor or the Exchequer had.
 
The week saw four contenders whittled down to two to be the deputy leader of the ruling Labour Party which not being the same as Deputy Prime Minister has the potential to act as an out of parliament challenge to his authority and losing Lord Mandelson over connections to a U.S. Developer who is a pedophile with gushing set of emails and comments upon his then 50th birthday.
 
And this person, prominent in Tony Blair's days in office from 1997 to 2007for handling the media was seem as a bit a slippery eel then was appointed in 2024 after the General Election to be our Ambassador to the United States of America.
 
Now he has been sacked.
 
Not a good week and bit for Prime Minister Starmer,eh?
