    You mean Vodafone and Talk Talk don't want Failing Grayling either? Isn't he even good enough to use to bribe the Saudis?

    I guess that the private sector realises what an dangerously incompetent thicko he is and wouldn't want him within 10 yards of their car park, let alone their business.

    They're subcontracting out his brain to Dom.

    Then every so often people wonder why nobody has seen Boris in ages.
    We see Boris weekly where he fails to answer the questions of the leader of her Majesty's Opposition, Sir Keir Starmer QC MP.

    As a staunch ex-Tory, I feel totally let down by this and the most previous Government.

    Same here. I can see me never voting Tory ever again.

    It sounds like quite an important job. The sort of job for which you would normally expect to have a series of interviews, with a panel interview at the end, probably have to do a powerpoint presentation, that sort of thing.

    I once had to do two interviews for a poxy 3 month contract* so I'd expect "UK Intelligence Committee Chair" to involve the sort of recruitment process where you are grilled to within an inch of your life, and then someone else walks in at the end wearing a very large pair of rubber gloves, and says "One last thing before you go, Mr Grayling...".
    Something like that, anyway...

    *(although that was down to Accenture's high-performance HR team not being able to get two people in the same room at the same time.)

    I thank my lucky stars that it is a mutually-disrespectful relationship. I'd really be miffed if it was one-sided.
