Has anyone got any comment on this? Is it true that ministers are such fuckwits that they believe teenagers are more educated in the matters the ministers are charged to deal with? I could kind of half understand this if it were from Labour, cos Labour are well known for their hyperbole on Tory governance, but this is one of their own saying this. Some stuff I just can't fathom, and this idea of younger is better is one of them. How far do you go? It seems like the Greta curse.

What link would you like? It was a Twitter comment. I never use the site so don't have one.

He is saying the government is run by teenage advisors. Do you need more information to understand this notion of teenagers advising the government? I'd have thought it was self-explanatory.

Ok. First of all then, as alleged the statement is utter bollox.
What perhaps needs looking at is the mindset of the adult yet infantile advisors appointed for dubious reasons. I think it’s fair to say i cannot recall a time since i had the vote where governments did not pay ‘advisors’ for ‘opinion’ of variable quality but i think it is a recent phenomenon that the rewards for such advisership have become so great
As a person now in receipt of the monthly state pension i seem to have been targetted by various organisations who think i have time on my hands but ia recent such contact led me to realise my local library allows me a rolling subscription to hundreds of magazines delivered electronically to my phone. One such is The Spectator and i must say it is REMARKABLE how many current elected parliamentarians got to be a candidate by first being an adviser.
I think perhaps the question is put wrongly
I think perhaps the nadir of this business was reached with Cumming’s Press Conference announcing he had done nothing wrong and was not resigning.
If Boris had been a real Prime Minister the Press Conference HE held about 45 minutes later would have been called about 45 SECONDS later and he would have announced to the nation that Mr Cummings was in fact wrong to have taken the action he spike of earlier and that regrettably he had shown himself unsuitable to remain in the position he held up until a minute ago and from which he is dismissed with immediate effect.
Sadly BoJo chose to submit to Cumming’s demands instead. Leaving me wondering what BoJo was shagging in the photo Cummings must have somewhere…..

A certain amount of corruption is to be expected around any amount of power.
It becomes a major issue when it entirely runs the show - when the corrupt build a specially protected 8 lane motorway of corruption so the corruption can go on unimpeded day and night - when nobody honest can get anything at all done because all the resources have already been sucked away by the corrupt. Sadly, this is now the situation we find ourselves and 'advisors' and the bewildering array of 'special groups' form the fencing around it.
