He fucking doesn't. He's a second rate journalist at best, not the leader of a major economy. We are fucked.

Considering the unchecked power that the British media is able to hold the nation to ransom with, I think it would be foolish to not consider someone with links to that industry to have conflicting interests.

Well he can swim a bit and speak french, those qualities may be worth something.

He was never a journalist. He was a columnist, a writer of crap opinion pieces who got his job through the Oxford chums network. He didn't investigate or research jack shit. He was a right wing troll, a cut price Jeremy Clarkson.

Clarkson at least is pretty entertaining.

He only cares about saving himself.

His resignation and suicide would seem the obvious suggestion.

Blackadder?

Yeah

"Interesting thought - make a note of it, Dominic."

He resigns and the Tories elect someone to the job who cares about the country rather than just about themselves.

About caring Tories……

Very fair point...
None of them care about people, but I believe (hope) some of them care about the country.

Generally yes. But I remember being very sad when Rory was beaten in the leadership contest. He's one of the few who I feel would actually be a 'steady hand on the tiller' as it were.

They were all cast off in the brexit purges

The well known ones were. I'm hoping there are some that nobody has heard of yet.

He can't without a significant uplift to those who depend upon the state for support. He can't do that as that'd be like saying the trickle down economy doesn't work which would stop the gravy train for his mates.

He doesn't. The next government under a different party does.

How does one find out how much of UK pensions are invested in BP and Shell? I looked into shares a few years ago having lost a family member and being left with money for new shoes…anyway, I looked at some options and many mainstream ideas focused on oil shares as such a large part of govt pensions are in them…is this true? How does the average bod look such things up?

Will give you the top ten mutual funds and shareholders.
For specific pension funds, you’d have to look at their reports or prospectuses.

Last bit of article mentioned BP and Shell…

Step one: resign
Step 2: general election
With luck, he could just do step 2 and the electorate would take care of step 1 for him.
