Bob Ainsworth; new UK Defence Secretary
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
Bring back Des. Part-time maybe but he did stay the pace.
PS, on second thoughts, don't.
I had Dr John's H&S Policy on 2 sides of paper, Swiss took, IIRC, 6, by the time we got to John H it was back to 3.

Bob Ainsworth - New SoS Defence
BBC are reporting that the former Armed Forces Minister has stepped up to be SoS.

According to Wiki he was "a candidate member of the International Marxist Group", who are fans of Trotsky.
A former trade-unionist at Jaguar, so he'll be a fan of buying British, so I don't fancy the chances of the Puma upgrade being done outside the UK.

I would like to extend my congratulations to "former" communist Ainsworth, that nice working class lad, on hearing news of his new promotion. I do hope, he now has enough money to install oak beams in the rest of his house, by using monies from his own purse, rather than claim expenses meant for essential parliamentary work.
I am "heartened" by your representation of working class people up and down the land...............

Well every cloud and all that: Buff Hoon has finally walked!! Another truly awful slimeball of a SoS.
Now Hoon has always stayed on regardless as he's a horrid toady, therefore, how bad is this govt/Broon for him to walk out???
Hopefully, this lot will be gone very very soon.
