Did you forget about the clocks.....

Thereby hangs a tail.
Changing the clocks used to be a task that took a little while, but almost all the 'clocks' I now use change themselves - phone, laptop, Sky box on the telly, and the clock in the car.

Does anyone think the current Cabinet are competent... another word for impurities which rise to the top [during smelting] is slag... that would be far less complementary.

Has anyone ever thought a cabinet is competent?
Anyone with a computer can now hurl abuse at ministers at any time of the day or night, and many choose to use that capability often.
But has anything changed - apart from the quantity of abuse?
When competence of minsters cropped up in real conversation pre-internet, I cannot recall anyone saying the Home Secretary is brilliant or the Chancellor is a clever fellow.
Quite the reverse.

For my own amusement, I checked the definition of scum, "a vile person or group of people". I'd be happy to stand behind that and give specific examples if necessary.

As a body of men and women? Probably not. This mob, however, seem to have no individual worthy of the description either. Or can you tell me who you think is deserving of praise?

I was impressed by Rishi Sunak when he threw 'austerity' away and appeared to stand against Johnson's foolish ideology, but he's been dragged under by recent events.

Yet another thread descends into serial abuse of the government.
You've already got a thread moaning about Brexit, a thread moaning about the government's response to Covid, and a thread to moan about the Tory party.
Do you really want another one?
Dull, dull, dull.

There's a big gap between being not always amazingly 100 % competent, and even humanly flawed from time to time.
And the relentlessly, unashamedly self serving , and near brazenly incompetant, carelessness, of the present incumbents.

Why not start one to praise them, either collectively or individually? Is there a single minister that non-partisan people could point to and say yes, they have integrity and are on top of their brief?
