Sunak leaving yesterdays D Day event to do a TV interview to try and rescue his position after his fibs about the Treasury costing the Labour plans as a £2k hit to tax payers (which also gave the impression of being £2k per year and not over the 5 years of the parliament) when it was nowt to do with the Civil Service is really poor. He seems to have appointed a couple of village idiots to his Special Advisor team, because they’re leaving him wide open.
D Day was a major moment in WW2 and yesterday’s events will probably be the last major anniversary where veterans who actually participated in the landings will be present. Around 5,000 allied personnel gave their lives that day and a similar number were injured - it beggars belief that Sunak and his SPADs thought it was more appropriate to Foxtrot Oscar to a TV interview than stay at the event, it’s a massive insult to the service personnel.
I used to work in a place where the guy in charge went on to become a Special Advisor. Before leaving and becoming a SPAD, he oversaw a significant deterioration in performance which took years to address. He was also very arrogant and believed he was above the rules. If Sunak and his ministers are surrounding themselves with people like that, it’s no wonder they’re messing things up. | | | |
