Dominic Raab is a well known political liability: he's long rumoured to be a human arseclown, but the bullying report forcing him to actually suffer some recompense must have come as a shock.
I'm so used to these people getting away with things I nearly fell off my chair when the news broke: but it leads to what we all know is coming: The civil service is too "w*ke", too politically correct and too full of do gooders to get things done. My riposte is: if you can't govern without being a horrible shitty human, perhaps you shouldn't be governing as it takes talent to manage people well- talent the tories lack.
But the issue is broader: older tories must be humiliated to be part of this gaping wound in British politics- and yet they stay. Newer Tories are mostly elected on the ticket of "getting Brexit done". It sure is done! Hey- how's the economy, civil rights and British living standards going?
The tories are talentless and Raab being found to be a bully is symptomatic of a government who doesn't have the talent, innovation - or right (aka, MANDATE) to govern.
