Brown’s Rump Cabinet

! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.

No Mandate Brown has announced his Rump Cabinet.

Alistair Darling takes his place as Chancellor of the Exchequer.  The man with the dodgiest eyebrows on the planet and fellow Scot is leaving behind the Department for Trade & Industry (an area that is devolved in Scotland) that he has lorded over since 2002 for the number two spot in the Rump Parliament.

Charlie Falconer, the fat racist tub of lard, is out of the Justice Ministry, replaced by the Demon Headmaster himself, Jack Straw.  The Demon Headmaster also takes over as Lord Chancellor and First Secretary of State – a far cry from the made-up job of Leader of the House of Commons.

Geof Hoon the Buffoon takes over from non-entity, Jacqui Smith, as Chief Whip – the cabinet member who makes sure MPs do as the party says rather than what their constituents want.

Harriet Harman takes over from the Demon Headmaster as Leader of the House of Commons and Minister for Women.  Harman is also Deputy Leader of the Liebour Party having “won” the party election by getting most second-choice votes.

James Purnell has moved from the DWP where he was Minister for Pensions back to the Department for Media, Culture and Sport where he used to be Parliamentary under-secretary of state for Creative Industry & Tourism.

Des Browne – another fellow Scot – stays in the Defence Ministry and takes over the Scotland Office from Douglas Alexander who is going to be far too busy dreaming up new taxes so his beloved Scotland can have more English money.

Douglas Alexander – yet another fellow Scot – has left the Department for Transport (which is devolved in his own constituency) and Scotland Office to take over as International Development Minister.

Ed Milliband, the younger cousin of Batshit and son of a Belgian-Jewish Marxist Theorist, is taking over as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for the Cabinet Office which is a promotion from “nobody” to “nearly nobody”.

Alan Johnson has been booted out of the Department for Education and Skills and the Ministry has been split into two with Ed Balls, previously a nobody at the Treasury, taking the new Department for Children, School and Families and John Denham, also previously a nobody at the Treasury, taking the new Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills.

Hilary Benn has left International Development for DEFRA – another inner-city politician to screw up the countryside.

David Milliband has been rewarded for bankrupting hundreds of English farmers and attracting billions of pounds in fines from the European Federation because of DEFRAs utter incompetence in paying out farming subsidies with a promotion to Foreign Secretary.

Alan Johnson has been moved from DfES to the Depratment of Health where he can carry out the Goblin King’s “reforms” of the English NHS (the health system in Scotland being devolved and none of Brown’s concern).

Jacqui Smith, the token woman senior cabinet member, has taken over what’s left of the Home Office from Jock Reid.

John Hutton is taking over the department formerly known as the DTI, now known as the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform from Alistair Darling.

Baroness Ashton of Upholland has taken over as Leader of the House of Lords and will be responsible for continuing the undemocratic politicising of the Upper House.

Hazel Blears, the ginger whinger, has replaced Ruth Kelly in the Department for Communities and Local Government, the deparment responsible for regional government and will also be Minister for Equality.  She will have extra time on her hands to make sure minorities are over-represented as often as possible now that No Mandate Brown is taking personal control of the balkanisation of England.

Shaun Woodward has promoted from under-secreatary for Northern Ireland to replace the bigot Hain as Northern Ireland Secretary.

Ruth Kelly has taken the Scottish Feifdom of the Department for Transport from Douglas Alexander.

Andy Burnham has moved from the Department of Health to the Treasury as Chief Secretary to the Treasury.

Peter Hain has lost the Northern Ireland Office but kept the Welsh Office and gained the Department for Work & Pensions.

Wiki: Since 1649, the term “rump parliament” has been used to refer to any parliament left over after the true parliament has formally dissolved.

    Your anti-Scottishness is so obvious, and it’s a shame…I love seeing English people saying ‘no’ to a ‘Scottish Prime Minister’, you’ve had one for the last 10 years thickos! Yes, England should have it’s own parliament and find it’s own oil instead of taking ours, it should also find it’s own top engineers, inventors and medical pioneers, and it should probably replace it’s monarcy since the existing one clearly prefers Scotland. Get a grip and stop being so xenophobic. Scotland is not bleeding England dry, you just have to see how the English government has bled our islands and rural communities to see that England and Scotland are too different to be ruled by the same people. It doesn’t make sense for London to be under the same laws as islands with only a few hundred inhabitants, but hey it’s all about London isn’t it? Today was a big day for Scotland, but it should tell you something that England has been attacked for terrorists for years and this is the first attack on Scotland.

    LJ, if you’d taken the time to read a bit more of my blog rather than emulating a Scottish history lesson – read the bits that suit and draw some bizarre conclusions – then you’d see that you’re wrong.

    Your anti-Scottishness is so obvious

    I’m not anti-Scottish – my two step-children are a quarter Scottish.

    I love seeing English people saying ‘no’ to a ‘Scottish Prime Minister’, you’ve had one for the last 10 years thickos!

    Which I’ve pointed out on many occassions.

    Yes, England should have it’s own parliament and find it’s own oil instead of taking ours

    And here, like most Scots, you show your ignorance of the facts. I really can’t be bothered to repeat myself again – do a search on my blog and find the previous responses to other Scots who’ve said the same thing.

    Get a grip and stop being so xenophobic.

    I’m not xenophobic – my best friends are Dutch and I’ve got quite a few other foreign friends (including Scots).

    Scotland is not bleeding England dry

    Again, a quick search of my blog will show you many, many things that Scotland gets that England pays for. When you’ve done your research on “oor oil” it will help you accept that Scotland is a kept nation.

    just have to see how the English government has bled our islands and rural communities to see that England and Scotland are too different to be ruled by the same people

    There hasn’t been an English government since 1707 and I agree, England and Scotland are too different to be ruled by the same people. Scotland is a socialist, border-line communist subsidy junky and England is a capitalist, self-sufficient nation.

    It doesn’t make sense for London to be under the same laws as islands with only a few hundred inhabitants, but hey it’s all about London isn’t it?

    Presumably something I’ve said, somewhere, has given you the impression that I don’t agree with this. Either that or this is another of your baseless assumptions. I live in England’s most rural county, you’re preaching to the converted.

    Today was a big day for Scotland, but it should tell you something that England has been attacked for terrorists for years and this is the first attack on Scotland.

    Yes, it shows that Scotland is an irrelevance even to the Jihadi’s halfway round the world.
