After convicted fraudster Louise Haigh was derailed from her role, Heidi Alexander has now been appointed as the new Transport Secretary. Heidi’s CV doesn’t exactly fare well for the department… From 2019-2021, Alexander was the Deputy Mayor for Transport for London. In 2019, she candidly confessed, “I may not have qualifications in transport.” A frank admission given her track record in the role, in which she oversaw: 28 strikes on TfL-run services.

Ministers will scramble for longer to make the case for their departments. https://www.theguardian.com/politic...til-june-to-announce-whitehall-budget-details
If dishonesty from a decade or more ago is enough to resign for, surely lying and reneging on manifesto promises within months of being in office is worse?
Na even saying Christmas offends loads of people. It doesn’t, and I don’t see why you are asking for approval, your a grown man with at least some of your marbles left, do as you see fit gramps.
