The only person who could replace President Tony is the deputy President, I mean deputy PM. (heaven forbid) That is why there is a PM and a deputy PM so that if the PM cannot function then DPM takes over until the PM can function again or the next national election or the party in power has an election to seek a new leader.

The PM cannot just hand over to his choice unless it is the DPM. But then President Tony has delusions of grandeur and he thinks that he can do anything he likes.

Whoever does take over will be handed a poisoned chalice with insufficient time to make an impression but just enough time to be blamed when Labour lose the next election.

It is time that party politics was taken out of government and we had MP’s truly representing their constituents and not ham strung by having to vote how the leader and whips dictate. Many of the more honest MP’s and yes there are many, are reluctant to vote as their conscience dictates because to do so they would lose the chance of a ministerial job and all the perks that brings. Ministers are appointed by the PM and if you cross the PM in some way you will never get onto the front benches. That is wrong, wrong, wrong!

It was reported yesterday on one news broadcast that two jags’ salary and extras grosses at nearly ONE MILLION POUNDS PER YEAR for doing next to nothing. I wonder what sort of hold has two jags got over Tony to get such a deal?
