Those wondering if @GavinWilliamson should be sacked are asking wrong question. Real Q is why does someone like him get into Cabinet? Answer is he was Chief Whip. For those outside the rotten world of Westminster, this is what a Chief Whip does... 1/
To 'encourage' an MP to support the govt, Chief Whip says "I know your niece India is hoping to go to Oxford next yr, would be such a shame is she didn't get in". Or "It would be great if your son Hugo got that internship @MegaBank, I hear it's in the balance." 2/
Or "your lovely wife Camilla would be so good on the Board of the National Gallery, it would be such a loss if she missed out."
Remembering this is the same @GavinWilliamson who was sacked for allegedly leaking out of a cabinet security committee re Huawei. 3/

In what world does he then get another senior job months later? And for those thinking I'm attacking the Tories, the idea of @AnnelieseDodds as Chancellor or @lisanandy as For Secretary is equally risible. And the Civil Service is no better. Almost no real world experience. 4/
We are witnessing the wholesale failure of the British State, both government and Civil Service. Limited real life or business experience and almost no technical skills.
