Could just be me noticing this, or it’s probably just a commonly used strategy to handle long term negative optics and avoid accountability, but has anyone else clocked that this Tory government utilises a serious rotation policy.

Examples...
Covid - 19.

Matt Hancock was placed front and centre for weeks. Understandably so as Heath Sec, but as soon as the attacks on him became intense, the daily briefings were consistently fronted but others E.g. the Housing Sec. Hancock then wheeled out to present ‘positive’ news..
such as ‘meeting testing figures’ etc. Affording people the opportunity to forget about his ineptitude.

Jenrick was up for interview consistently, but soon as his cash for favours scandal broke, other ministers stood in the light.

Dominic Raab, when faced with difficult ..
questions about the American diplomat’s wife who ran over the teenager, was withdrawn from media.

Priti Patel is practically always absent because whenever she’s gets involved in any conversation, it turns into a horror show.

Gavin Williamson is all of a sudden becoming less
Available with Grant Shapps and Helen Whatley facing the questions.

Boris Johnson is shielded from answering anything that is perceived as negative. And politicians take it in turns to take the heat, soaking up the anger, allowing everyone to forget what and who they were
Angry about previously.

So much so that people like Matt Hancock (60,000+ dead), Liz Truss (cheese trade obsessive) and Jenrick (saves his made £40mil in tax) still have jobs.

Begs the question, where’s Jacob Rees Mogg and government cesspit, Michael Gove, at the moment?
This government is a full blown, corrupt, morally backrupt, self preservationist shit show.

Each one them, to a man, is just a totally shit person.
