I have made no secret of my support for Andrea Leadsom so my comments on Mrs May’s Cabinet need to be seen in this context:
Chancellor of the Exchequer Philip Hammond Remainer A safe pair of hands
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson Leaver A challenge for him
Home Secretary Amber Rudd Remainer Bloody rude in EU debate
Defence Secretary Michael Fallon Remainer Watch him
Brexit Secretary David Davies Leaver A good job for him and us
International Trade Liam Fox Leaver A good job for him and us
I have two hopes:
- That Michael Gove has a job. I would send him back to run education and to sort out “The Blob”.
- That Gisela Stuart has a job. This may be difficult, given she is a Labour MP, but I think we should find a way around that minor problem.
