Did Johnson get to deliver the immortal line:
"We're all in pretty strung out shape, but stay Frosty"?

Oh no!! Brexit not going quite as well as hoped

Deliberate poison chalice or Johnson’s genuine belief she’s the best person for the job?

It's a bit of an odd one, Truss is already Foreign Secretary and Minister for Women and Equalities.
You'd have thought that each of those would full time enough, without slinging the full time Brexit negotiator on top of it.
Given the importance this Gov have pretended to attach to Global Britain and Brexit, I'm not sure what they're playing at, saying that, nor do they.

Good morning,
Given my view that BJ's whole political approach is to make a decision based on the wind direction and then leave others to deal with the consequences I feel that Liz Truss is a good choice.
Despite his denial at the time the "Sea Border" was always part of the deal and accepting it allowed him to sign off BrExit as a big public issue in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales).
If this means NI becoming part of a united Ireland, that's fine and as long as the Loyalist community doesn't start much violence. As far as I can tell most people in GB don't really care about NI being part of the UK or not, so if the UK was to become GB and Ireland and Eire reunited then most people would be happy or indifferent.
Liz could be very good at creating a situation where both sides stop trying to find a real solution and are happy with the situation as it is now and just go thru the motions of trying to solve the problem.
The longer that negotiations drag on the more that businesses in NI will become used to the new circumstances and simply drop the difficult to obtain products replacing them with more easy to obtain ones. So in five or ten years time NI and Eire will be so alike that many young people won't be able to tell them apart on a day to day basis and the problem just becomes an oddity that affects a handful of business. Any politicians talking about wanting to be tied to Westminster rather than Dublin will start to look like cute old grandpa who wants to go back the dark ages, he's old so we will smile and nod in agreement.
Bye

I am trying to cast my mind back to the last time Johnson selected someone based on the proficiency for the job. No, nothing.
