I've missed much of the news during the last couple of days, and have returned to *a lot* people on here who seem surprised and disappointed (stronger emotions are available) by Rishi Sunak's Cabinet.

I'm struggling with the surprise... 🧵 1/7
Leave to one side Sunak's convictions (for what it's worth, they seem entirely consistent with the overall direction of travel - one furlough scheme in the midst of a pandemic does not make him a champion of the poor, or a big spender).

Focus instead on the Tory party. 2/7
The immediate threat to his premiership comes from the right of the Tory party; from the #Borisorbust faction.

If he loses their support, he could fall within days.

So, predictably, he is doing what he needs to do to keep them onside. 3/7

Job Interview and Lying
Interviewer (I): I see you have recent experience. Could you tell me why you left you last job?
Applicant (A): Well over 60 of my staff resigned and said they were no longer prepared to work with me .... ImageImage
I: Why was that?
A: They were upset about someone I appointed to be in charge of staff welfare. It turned out he had a little bit of a habit of sexually assaulting people.
I: Well, we can all make mistakes. I mean you weren’t to know.
A: Absolutely. That is what I told them.
A: And I told some of them to tell everyone else that I didn’t know.
I: And did they not accept that?
A: No. Because a highly respected man who used to work for the organisation, told everyone that I did know as he had told me. They said it was a safeguarding issue or something.
