Comment on Esther McVey mocked for trying to explain what ‘Minister for Common Sense’ is on Question Time
snacks@feddit.uk 6 months agoi think its a waste of time, its playing the same tabloid game it was invented for. What shall we call this hire? Minister for Common Sense. Is that a real title/do we need to spend any time making it a real title? no, its common sense that her actual title is something much more boring and usual

And again what is Sunak’s role. Does she over rule him ?

id imagine shes there to offer views on things, and possibly part of a numbers game of political power for specific issues. She could be there as a fluffer or as a person to whip little idiots into line. Thats what that job is.

This just about sums it up. Its all a mind game, and you fell for it.
