I am quite surprised at this because allthough he's a bloody Tory, he was a good Defence Secretary and well experienced. I did not agree with a couple of remarks he made towards President Zelensky, but overall he was a very good friend and supporter of the people of Ukraine.
He will be a hard act to follow

Schapps fifth different cabinet job in the last year apparently.
If ever a statistic summed up the utter shambles this Tory parliament has been, that is it.
Utterly useless PR man to boot.
Only just over a year to go now thank goodness. I wonder how much more damage they will do in the time they have left.

As Victor Meldrew would say "I dont believe it"
Its almost as though Rishi Sunak wants the Conservative Party to lose the next general election
I reckon Ladbrokes and William Hill will open books as to how long before he makes another balls-up
Grant Shapps - the return of Blunder Man

Former chief of the general staff of the British Army, Lord Dannatt seems to be unimpressed with the appointment. He said Shapps knows very little about defence.

Grant has always been the same, he has an outburst of public supporting rhetoric, within a couple of days it will back at saying what the civil service tell him he should be saying.

Not sure Schapps knows much about anything apart from grinning inanely and mouthing platitudes, Red. I dare say he will not do much between now and the election.

Well it looks like Labour might win the next General Election simply by doing 'nothing', the Tories are handing it to them on a plate.
