If that doesn’t matter and is okay with you and Tricky, fine...that’s your opinion...just don’t be surprised when the rest of society starts following suit and honesty and integrity are things from the past because of the examples set at the top.
Sorry my usual semi flippant summary gets in the way, yes I include dishonesty and lack of competence in this. However, I think Mr and Mrs Average, who (we've discussed this before) yesterday paid for some building work 'cash' will forgive a bit of dishonesty, and who followed that up by arriving at the shops later in the day without their wallet/purse will forgive a bit of incompetence.

Believe me , I have no time for people who rise up an organisation based on appealling character traits (sorry but BJ does have) rather than ability to do the job, after personally suffering from same in the business world, I see it that folk are looking at delivery first, and amongst all the chaos the Conservatives have delivered on two massive, marketable items - Brexit (even if it is a self-inflicted wound, I make to judgement) and the vaccine rollout (even if its actually thanks to a handful of buyers and an army of volunteers) and the voters like that

Meanwhile, Her Majesty's opposition should have been absolutely tearing into BJ and Matt Hancock for (what I DO see as) failings as accused by Cummings, yet their spokeswoman the other night (Diane Abbott) chose to focus instead on justifying her description of the black-on-black shooting of Sasha Johnson as a race crime.
