This is interesting. David Cameron’s resignation honours list is being criticised for including a load of people that campaigned for Remain.
It’s a good job we ended up voting Leave. If this is what Cameron was handing out for failure, who knows what honours they’d get if the vote had gone the way he’d wanted? You’d probably have to invent new ones
According to the Sunday Times, Will Straw, head of the failed official pro-Remain campaign, has been proposed to be made CBE, and Tory and Remain campaign donors, Ian Taylor and Andrew Cook, are in line for knighthoods.
Mr Cameron’s list is also said to have:
Recommended knighthoods for four cabinet colleagues who backed Remain - Philip Hammond, Michael Fallon, Patrick McLoughlin, and David Lidington
Recommended a damehood for Arabella Warburton, chief of staff to former Prime Minister Sir John Major, who campaigned for Remain
Made 24 recommendations for Downing Street staff, including a knighthood for former director of communications Craig Oliver, and an OBE for Isabel Spearman, who was employed as a special adviser to Mr Cameron’s wife, Samantha, but is widely described in newspaper reports as her stylist
Requested that former Chancellor George Osborne, who was dismissed by Theresa May when she became prime minister, be made a Companion of Honour.
Pretty pleased with how it went. I think I smashed the questions pretty well and there’s nothing obvious that I’d go back and change if I could. I guess I was always quite confident of passing the phone interview but then again, that puts you under a different sort of pressure to deliver when it is indeed expected.
The next step, if I’m successful, will be the assessment centre which I’m sure will be brutally testing. I’d be gobsmacked if I actually made it through that! But it’ll be nice to have the chance to give it a go.
Anyway, they say i’ll hear back by the end of the week and that if I do make it through to the AC, that’ll likely be some time at the start of September, so there’s a long way still to go. Here’s hoping.
"Although you might think little has changed in the past month or so, perhaps that’s because your life has always been fairly shit. I go to theatres, restaurants and cutting edge art exhibitions, so I probably know more than you.
Sorry to leave, Britain, but it’s time to go somewhere less horrible, where people don’t read books just for the story and handsome men can spend £400 on quality knitwear without getting snide comments in the pub.
Anyway my dad has agreed to lend me the money for a warehouse apartment in Vancouver so let’s all go there and have amazing sex until the world realises how we are right about everything."
Ha ha someone was, who was that? I’m moving to Canada if we go out? Ha ha like that tory Phil Collins when Labour got in, we all cheered when that bell left our shores.
Ah Cherts and his Canadian passport. A thread and threat of legend, I can imagine May and the gang having discussions right now and how to stop him from leaving…
I bumped into a guy I used wo work with over the weekend. He was a senior manager in the CPS and always came across as a easy going, liberal guy. As usual the conversation get around to Brexit and how we voted. I had the guy pegged as a stone wall Remain but he said he voted to leave and then went on about how Europe was finished as an economic entity. Fair enough. He has his opinion…then all of a sudden he goes into this tirade about the “horrible Frenchies”, how they hated us and how we are better off without them! Didnt see that coming from someone like him.
It wasn’t a threat, as the vote had already taken place. It was purely a case of if the country goes down the pot (and with the increase of racists like you seemingly enjoying the limelight it’s only a matter of time) then we may look at moving. As said, wheels are in motion so fingers crossed I will no longer have to be associated with racist cunts like you.
