A Cabinet of all the talentless

News of the cabinet reshuffle is trickling out and there are some suprises - one pleasant, the rest less so.

First the good news: Baroness Warsi has been sacked as Party Chairman which means she loses her cabinet post.  Warsi has a history of deeply insulting comments about English people and earlier this year tried to suggest that UKIP had some sort of link with the BNP because the increase in the number of UKIP candidates in the local elections was similar to the decline in the number of BNP candidates.  Good riddance.

Raging europhile Ken Clark has been removed from the Ministry of Injustice and will now be a minister without portfolio advising David Cameron on economic policy.  A slightly worrying appointment given that Clark still thinks we should join the failing €uro.

Andrew Mitchell has been taken out of the Department for International Development where he was responsible for funding India's nuclear and space programmes and appointed as Chief Whip, responsible for threatening and bullying Tory MPs to make sure they set their principles to one side and vote how they're told.

It is believed that Cameron will bring back crooked Lib Dem, David Laws, who stole taxpayers money to pay his girlfriend's rent.  There is also speculation that Owen Paterson will be moved out of the Northern Ireland Office.

Underwhelmed so far? It's not even halfway through yet.

For the ordinary person in the street, it is irrelevant who David Cameron keeps or gets rid of - we have lost all faith in any of these deluded human beings who purport to represent us. The British economy could be kick-started quite quickly, but since the 70's the public have turned their back on anything produced on these shores. Perhaps UKIP could be the first political party to guarantee honesty, accountability and accurate information regarding why the next generation are having to pay off the massive debts that has been built up over at least 2 decades. I won't hold my breath!

I think that Mr Laws was sorting out his boyfriends rent but that is not the real issue , think about why our country is in the financial state it is in ? is it because all of our rubbish chancellors have no accounting qualifacations , they are mostly lawyers who have not acutally done a lot of that either because their all to busy being politico's

It puts UKIP in a unique position and a very engaging one with the general public and that is that most of us have to do a days work before we start playing politics
