First response to that on Twitter was an old Turkish proverb.

'When a clown moves in to a Palace it does not make him a King, it just makes the Palace a Circus'

How can anyone argue with that?

Turkey should have remembered that when Erdoğan came along.

Turkey should have remembered that when Erdoğan came along.

I had a Turkish lady, mature English student, staying for three months.
She was extremely concerned about the election and Erdogan getting in by hook or by crook.
She felt that Turkey could go the way of Afghanistan and she may have to leave if that happens.

Turkey should have remembered that when Erdoğan came along.

Even the strap hangings on the metro have pics of Erdoğan taking credit for the railway. He takes credit for new infrastructure but not for the inflation and the falling lira. Interesting that the Tories recently tried the same thing here, using public money to trumpet public spending as a Conservative party advert.

I can't decide whether this is now just a tit for tat war between the two and their admirers or is it actually an indicator they haven't got a pot to piss in and they can't meet all the commitments. I mean according to Construction News reported inflation in the industry for the year 2022 was adding £23bn to their costs so thats probably why there are not 40 new hospitals and the White Elephant that is HS2 must be bleeding us dry

I see Johnson has got a new job writing for the Daily Mail.

Presumably, Chipperfields had no vacancies.
