    Can't think of anyone less qualified to be Int. Trade Secretary than Liam Fox

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liam_Fox

    A failed civilian medical officer who's been in politics his whole life, a corrupt expenses fiddler, someone who's never, not once, had anything to do with trade or even running a business, not even a one-man band?

    WTF does he know about trade, let alone international trade?

    Why is he even the cabinet?
    Hard Brexit now!

    George Osborne.

      A minister just needs good civil servants around them who tells them when to shut up.

          Surely by now you know they have to be called "unelected", or does that not apply if they are in the UK?
          …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

              Didn't Liam Fox campaign for Brexit? In my book that's all the qualification he needs, unless he's gone soft since.

                Would that be your chewable book.

                  So did Nigel Farage, Nick Griffin, Dominic Cummings, Jacob Rees Mogg and Paul Dacre.

                  Only Paul Dacre is still involved in running the country.
