Is his name really fabricant or is that nickname ? I hope it is a nickname. He looks like a character from a Monthy Python sketch and has a name from a Monty Python sketch

I can’t believe people are accusing Boris of lying.
It’s like they don’t even know the man…

It really is his name :see_no_evil:

Funny…

More like a fanny.

I could be really rude about his description but I’m sure it`s been done on the Web more than once.

He’s like a Boris Clone without the good looks, hairstyle, charisma or intelligence.
I don`t even think I’m being ironic :frowning_face:

He really is that bad.

The piece below was an excellent read.

I know a few on here have said it, cannot remember who, sorry…what happened to Truss is precisely why those who seek power are not those who should wield it.

She clearly has no interest in helping people, only in ruling them, and she’s prepared to adopt whatever position she thinks will get her there.

Good fucking riddance.

I’ll try to as I’m not into the nuts and bolts of the finances but the missus is on the school board. The base rate funding that a school gets is driven by pupil numbers and to some degree needs. It’s the supplemented by extras. This base rate naturally drives finances to larger schools with more pupils and bigger classes. Small schools end up with insufficient resources, insufficient teachers and their funding being lower per pupil.

It’s again driven by a finance model where schools have to compete for funding through grants etc. Why the fuck should a school have to compete for cash?

And as with all government driven stuff the only way they can save costs is by shedding staff. As a result the quality in small schools goes down etc. There’s no cost saving mechanism available. Building costs etc. are what they are.

ā€˜She’s just weird.’

That was always the most striking thing about her. And , fittingly , the thing she will probably most be remembered for. People will barely recall anything about her time in office , but they will all remember ā€˜that speech’ !

To be fair she was only there for about 12 days…

So there’s no proof of this hyperbole of schools being driven to closure. As I said, I was chair of finance, I know exactly how school funding works.

Jesus…Mordaunt is fucking terrible.

It’s about people…I won’t be drawn on the details of how I’ll help the people.

Possibly, but like NHS funding and management I suspect there’s other factors in play here. This isn’t exclusive to Wales is it?
