Fell on her sword backwards, I suspect.
Javid's an interesting choice. Like the MunchKhan, his dad was a bus driver. Unlike Khan, he doesn't seem to be a pissing, moaning, chippy protest-midget with a track record of sticking up for rights for snackbaristas.
Instead he concentrated on fleecing the proles out of their hard earned, and he's a moderate Eurosceptic, and pro-business.
I didn't much like his bandwagoning on the Windrush fake-news, but even if he's an open borders, mass migration advocate, then that makes him no worse than May and Rudd. I suspect he's a fair bit smarterer and more competent than either of them.
I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, and the best bit is that mpd72 will be apoplectic. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

I thought I'd hit peak cynic, but I actually had to have it pointed out to me that Javid's appointment might be a desperate gambit to appeal to A Certain Demographic in the local elections.
Not that I think that'll work. He's a Non Practising Certain Demographic who married a Not A Certain Demographic woman whom he actually seems to love and respect.
That sort of moderate modern model of integration is exactly what won't appeal to divisive grievance merchants. Me, I'm keeping an open mind. He flubbed Brexit and can zip it over the Windrush fake-news, but his background does appear to be actually proper Thatcherite conservative. That'll be novel. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
