Give ‘Private Pike’ Williamson an easier job

-

i hAd hoped not to mention our hapless defence Secretary, Gavin Williamson, so soon again. First, he made a fool of himself by saying of the challenge to the West from Moscow: ‘russia should shut up! russia should go away!’ now he’s raised the prospect of Britain fighting a war without any allies, saying sometimes it is right to go it alone. no wonder Sir Mark Sedwill, UK Britain’s national Security Adviser and tipped as the next Cabinet Secretary, said Williamson was talking nonsense. our military top brass are in despair about the defence Secretary. Mrs May should give the former fireplace salesman a less demanding job.
