Wisbech - we agree for a change.
The Home Office has serious flaws right now.
Is it lack of numbers or lack of the right skills - I have no idea - not good though

Starmer and Sue Grey were in cahoots when she was burying Boris and the BBC has reported what it had to only - the bare minimum - and to me it is big news.
Suella Braverman is caught speeding and does nothing more than try and arrange a private speed awareness course - not trying to avoid any penalty and this news is the second item on the webpage reporting that we need an inquiry.
They are just so transparently left it is embarrassing.
Refund the BBC

It's not just now, they have existed for many years. Nor is it limited to the Home Office. I suspect it's a combination of factors. Understaffing, lack of motivation, over-complicated and contradictory regulations and increased demand. I have seen some idiotic and very late decisions made by junior staff that then get elevated to a more senior level by me, resulting in longer delays and more convoluted explanations to try to justify the stupid decision. Ten years ago I took the Home Office to an Appeal Court and won. I am still waiting for my costs to be repaid.

Of course, they weren't in cahoots! She has the highest reputation for integrity. Which is why she was chosen to look at Johnson's behaviour.

Braverman tried to avoid being spotted and outed. That's genuine news. She is a hypocrite.

Nothing left/right involved. Except in certain minds.

Okay I was going by my friend she had to attend one in person only last year and was embarrassed about the whole thing. If there had been a bank of photographers outside because of a celeb she would have been mortified.

If you're saying it's all by computer then I don't see a problem.

One more point

Thank God the people running them are not public sector and in dispute with the Government. If you think it wouldn’t have got out you are living in cloud cuckoo land.

Personally I think she isn’t a particularly nice person, but she enquired, realised it wasn’t possible and then took the points.

Personally I’d rather a Government minister works on important things, as if she had taken the course no doubt people would have been bleating about how she wasn’t working.

Sorry to hear you got caught though - must have been weird for you to sit back and have to listen to someone else dispense advice.
