As best I can work out:
The Prime Minister of the UK thinks the UK would be better off run by other countries.
The Attorney General thinks it is.
The last Deputy Prime Minister, who was also Housing Minister, dodged tax on her second home.
The new Deputy Prime Minister thinks men can grow a cervix and Marie Antoinette won a Nobel Prize for physics.
The Chancellor lied on her CV, claiming to be a bank economist when she was not. She is in charge of the economy.
The Justice Secretary doesn't want to deport foreign criminals.
The Housing Secretary doesn't want to build houses.
The Anti-Corruption Minister was sacked for corruption.
The Homelessness Minister was sacked for making her own tenants homeless.
The Health Minister was sacked for wishing death on an old constituent. (This is party policy.)
The Technology Minister has never worked in or with technology. He has just moved to Business Secretary. He has never worked in business either.
The Education Secretary wants to close successful schools.
This is just a partial list. I have a very dim view of every government in my lifetime, but this one is nailing the coffin door shut on satire.
