As announced previously, I will be contesting the post of Housing Minister. I look forward to that challenge tomorrow

ReplyDeleteNot a good start from Senator Gorst but the alternative of Senator Bailhache sends shivers down the spine and would have put Jersey back a couple of hundred years.
Un-elected Deputy Pryke has to be removed from Health and replaced by Senator Ferguson. Politically the Senator and I could not be further apart but the woman does have a set of Gonads and a rather large set at that.
She'll not be lead by the Civil Servants and would whip that place into shape in no time.
I was dreading how interesting sir Phil would have made our times, so I don't think I want to complain too much about getting bland instead.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree. I thought that initially, but I don't think Senator Ferguson would be good for the hospital. She would probably want to privatise everything. But, let's not judge prematurely.
ReplyDeleteDo you agree she's got a big pair of gonads?
ReplyDeleteMonty you are wrong Sarah has a huge set of gonads and would waste no time in bouncing them off the heads of civil servants to get them into shape.
ReplyDeleteMonty, are you saying you've got a bigger set of gonads than Sarah?
