There was an interview with Cameron on yesterday's Andrew Marr programme

and when asked what was the very first thing he would do if he got in???


he said, and I quote... "I would set up a War Cabinet"


His true are colours beginning to peek out from behind that unpleasantly shiny smooth exterior... beware....

What he actually meant, and has said before, is that he would set up a war ca inet which would have members of the two other principal parties on it. That is, to my mind, a sensible and rational act.


Sensible to make it a real decision making forum using senior politicians of all types. On a more sly political level it alsoblunts any attacks from opposition parties if they have participated in the decisionmaking.

Well if it'll work for a War cabinet why not the rest of government business?


As it is David Cameron has suggested a coalition government would not work - surely it is not in the interests of the country to have as Chancellor a man who can not even stand up straight in front of a TV camera.

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
