Chris Grayling....has it really come to this?

How on earth can this incompetent buffoon continue to be a Minister of the State?

The number of matters for which he should have already resigned is extraordinary, then today he can't even be bothered to turn up for questions in the house because he knows he'll be lambasted over his MoJ cockup and his Brexit ferry payout.

Of course he used to work in Television and PR so it's the level of expertise we should expect I suppose.

Makes me just sad the country has come to this.

but lacking in the text books and principles.

He's so bad, even the NY Times thought his ineptitude worthy of an article.

It's a nice distraction from the rest of the Tory party incompetence and their Brexit fiasco though isn't it?

That's the only reason why I think he hasn't gone yet, it's taking attention away from everyone else.

I am sure he will be out at the next reshuffle. Becoming a national embarrassment.

If I was in the cabinet, the last thing I'd want is Grayling sacked. There are plenty of other buffoons there who'll be happy for the press to feast on this idiot for a few months yet!

Might as well stick all this in the Tory party thread. Keep the idiots together.

We've never had such a special cabinet as this. Johnson, Rudd, Leadsom, Fox, May, Grayling, Hunt - all numpties at the top of their game.

Totally agree, and still the opposition is not making any inroads. A very sorry state of affairs indeed.

It is. Very sad to be honest. And likely to continue without major Labour party reforms.
