I’m reading the scripts for Yes Minister for attempted political inspiration and can’t stop imagining the culture shock of Tommy’s first few months in office.
#Weeping with horrified laughter but anyway#I don’t think he was ever given a portfolio in his first election tho when labour was in power#then after what had to have been his second election (labour no longer in power if my timing is right) he was deputy whip-#-so probably dodged a portfolio. That said given he was in America as part of a trade delegation#I have theorised he had some kind of shadow-economic portfolio after his second election because#deputy whips stay home they don’t go overseas. Unless he bullied his way into the delegation as a cover reason to be in the US-#-either bcos of the amount of trade/manufacture/the BSA in his constituency or as an SME advisory role due-#-to his business acumen.#this is the bullshit that occupies my mind I could be thinking of sodomy but instead I’m thinking of organisational logistics#Anyway if Tommy took an economic or trade portfolio the conflict of interest given the number of govn contracts he then ‘bought’ via his-#-holding companies should see that man in prison for decades; decades I tell you; the horror of what he has done#/tongue in cheek#Mannnnn the newspaper articles about him must have been so absolutely vile#I’ve always writ him as being madly triggered by reporters and think it all prob circles back to the absolute slagging he would’ve got-#-in right leaning newspapers. his baptism of fire in print and then the de-balling by civil servants. And pederast ministers hire him like-#-some lackey. Terrible idea politics.
