I swear the cabinet gets bigger with every government. Fucking global warming or something

I also like how they have a bajillion ministers including 2 for education, 3 to 4 for the economy (depending on how you classify housing) and some dubiously constitutional "super juniors"

But Martin and Ryan between them still have what should be at least 5 departments

god...you don& #39;t think...ministerial appointments are given not to effectively spread the government& #39;s attention across disparate areas of policy, but as patronage to loyal party members and positions of leverage in a coalition cabinet?

Surely they wouldn& #39;t do that

3 economy ministers and they& #39;re still going to fuck us with austerity. Dedicated ministers for housing and higher ed but they& #39;ll still shit the bed on both.

And arts, culture, rural affairs and transport are all second-fiddles to show they don& #39;t give a fuck about any of them

i know this thread isn& #39;t coherent, but i am just so beyond done with the fucking pantomime that is electoral politics in this country.

Fuck all the parties, join a union, I& #39;m going to sleep.
