What exactly does this man need to do to get sacked?
Two headline stories this morning about f**k ups that he's been responsible for.

I wrote to him a couple of years ago in his (dis)guise of transport minister. The reply was typically arrogant and reminded me, that in case I had forgotten he was a kn*bhead
-
Once saw him on the escalators at Westminster tube station. He's quite physically repulsive.
And that's ME saying that.
-
I think a gentle push would have been in order Billy
-
Amazes me he is still in a job, whilst he can't make each decision himself his department he is responsible for and there is a clear trend.
Replace him and get someone in to scrap hs2 would be a good start.
-
While there is no doubt that he is unfit for public office (or anything else that involves a brain cell). It is surely no coincidence that most of hic cock-ups involve the privatisation of services to highly dubious individuals. I'd suggest he's been publicly feathering his nest when the realisation dawns that he is actually f**king useless.
-
I’d love to know how much the Thatcher govt personally made from the privatisation they instigated
-
I’d love to know what Grayling has on May that allows him to keep his job, it certainly must be spicey
-
Definitely got her scuddies.
-
Another shake of the supposedly non-existent Magic Money Tree to stop Eurotunnel taking the Government to court. I can only presume this is because they're scared shitless of what information would come out in open court.

With you all the way on the HS2 thing mate.

JFC. Only just seen that. £33m payment to cover Grayling's arse for the f**k up he made? And he's not resigning? Or being chopped into tiny pieces and fed to orphans?
f**k me sideways, politics is different now to what it used to be. There used to be lines that finished careers if they were crossed. Now it seems that ministers can do what they want and not get sacked.

Chuffin Heck talk about missed chances!

Maybe Chris Grayling didn't see him?
:lol:
-
Hes the grinninest g*t Ive ever clapped eyes on
Failing Grayling - how the hell does he keep a job ? Is he from Newark ?

There have been a load of political vanity projects over the years but HS2 trumps the lot. I'd be tempted to break the habits of a lifetime and vote Labour if they promised to kick it into touch. But they won't because they started the whole madness.
-
Conveniently forgotten by some people though.
The HS2 money would go a long way towards helping out the NHS.
-
If I became PM tomorrow the first thing I would do - even before the Brexit stuff - would be to cancel HS2.
As for Chris Grayling, never has the phrase "stealing a wage" been more appropriate.
-
I remember hearing him a few months ago.
He was asked what the people of the North thought about HS2 and told the reporter that the people of the North welcomed it.
I haven’t met anyone who actually does.
-
No HS2 will only be loved by mega rich Corporations who will profit mostly I suspect from the overspending it will produce AND the people whose houses / land will be purchased for large sums - to produce the route thus allowing the "project" to proceed in the first place
Surely yet again this shouts "Proportional Representation" as does the EU Leave / Remain fiasco. If we elect MPs / Parties in a more equitable way there has to be more input then long term from lots of moderate MPs / Parties and we as the electorate may agree with a larger percentage of what is decided by our representatives
Anyway back to Grayling - I dont think we need any fundamental changes to the voting system to decide on him. Stealing a wage as was said earlier. A complete dolt - but who are the fools - him for amassing a fortune or people on here and elsewhere slagging the likes of him whilst fighting to keep their heads above water ?
OR as copied from a National Newspaper
Labour called for him to resign over the “trail of destruction” he had caused in various government departments, including the part privatisation of the probation service, which has cost the taxpayer an extra £427m.
Shadow transport secretary Andy McDonald said: “On the same day a National Audit Office report highlights that disastrous decisions by Chris Grayling at the Ministry of Justice have wasted nearly half a billion pounds of public money we also learn that the transport secretary’s misjudgement over the award of a ferry contract has left taxpayer’s liable for £33m in compensation to Eurotunnel.
“This follows a damning Public Accounts Committee report on Wednesday on his mismanagement of the railways.
“His conduct as a minister is one of serial failure and routine incompetence. In any other sphere of life he would have been sacked long ago. I say yet again: this trail of destruction has gone on long enough. It’s time for Chris Grayling to go.”
