De fato, longe de temer uma Premiership Johnson, ambos acreditam que ele será muito melhor do que o atual titular e mais progressista do que pessoas como eu temem. Em poucas palavras, eles dizem que, se ele repetir seu desempenho de seu tempo no cargo como prefeito, ele se cercará de pessoas de qualidade que serão capazes de entregar. Office. Pelo bem do país, esperemos que seja esse o caso. Tive o prazer de conhecer Chuka Umunna em várias ocasiões e, como secretário de negócios da sombra no banco da frente do trabalho, ele havia falado em vários eventos do centro da cidade. Primeiro, houve sua campanha abortada como líder do Partido Trabalhista. Mais recentemente, ele se afastou do trabalho para estabelecer o grupo independente que se tornou Change UK. Agora ele abalou como democrata liberal e se vê elevado à posição do porta -voz do partido no Tesouro e Negócios.
However, this week I caught up with two well connected Westminster politicos, both left-leaning, who suggested that I had been a little harsh in my assessment. In fact, far from dreading a Johnson premiership, they both believe he will be much better than the current incumbent and more progressive than people like me fear.
Their evidence for this goes back to his time at City Hall in the capital. In a nutshell, they say that if he repeats his performance from his time in office as Mayor, he will surround himself with quality people who will be able to deliver.
On social issues, they both believe he is more liberal than he is given credit for and in terms of leadership and communication they assert that he will bring Lynton Crosby back into the Tory fold, which will result in a sharper, more focused messaging from the PMs office.
Even his critics concede that he is a good frontman and if it transpires that he appoints a good team to govern effectively, then perhaps he won’t be as bad as I anticipate. For the sake of the country, let’s hope that’s the case.
Chuka Can’t
Less than a decade ago I and many others predicted that the MP for Streatham would be prime minister. I have had the pleasure of meeting Chuka Umunna on several occasions and as the shadow Business Secretary on Labour’s front bench, he had spoken at a number of Downtown events.
To say his political career has gone backwards since then would be an understatement. First, there was his aborted campaign to be leader of the Labour Party. More recently, he walked away from Labour to establish the Independent Group who became Change UK. Now he has rocked up as a Liberal Democrat and finds himself elevated to the position of the party’s spokesman on Treasury & Business.
Não sei se ele lamenta suas decisões mais recentes, mas deveria. Tom Watson demonstrou que você pode construir uma plataforma forte dentro do Partido Trabalhista para desafiar alguns dos elementos mais extremos que assumiram o partido e pressionar a questão que Chuka se sente mais fortemente, o voto de um povo.
Se ele tivesse ficado e tivesse lutado em seu canto, difícil eu sei que Umunna poderia ter se encontrado na vanguarda da política britânica novamente em algum momento no futuro. Agora, é mais provável que ele se junte às fileiras da brigada 'pode ter sido uma boa brigada de PM' que assombra muitos que foram antes dele, incluindo Michael Heseltine, Michael Portillo e David Owen. 1980. largura = ”1/3 ″ tablet_text_alignment =” default ”Phone_Text_alignment =” Padrão ”Column_Border_width =” None ” column_border_style = "sólido"] [vc_raw_html] jtndySuymghyzwylm0qlmjjodhrwcyuzqsuyriuyrnr3ax R0zxIUy29TJTJGRG93BNRVD25GCMFUAYUZRNJLZl9ZCMLM0R0D3NYYYUTVFGZ3JTIYJTIWY2XHC3MLM0QLMJ J0D2L0DGVYLWZVBGXVDY1IDXR0B24LMJILMJBKYXRHLXNOB3CTY291BNQLM0QLMJJMYWXZZZSUYMIUZRUZVBGXVDY Uymcu0mervd250b3durnjhbmslm0mlmkzhjtnfjtndc2nyaxb0jtiwyxn5bmmlmjbzcmmlm0qlmjjodhrwcyUzqs Uyriuyrnbsyxrmb3jtlnr3axr0zxiUy29tjtjgd2lkz2v0cy5qcyuymiuymgnoyxjzzxqlm0qlmjj1dgytocuymi UzrsUzqyuyrnnjcmlwdcuzrq == [/vc_raw_html] [vc_raw_html] jtndySUymgSyxnzjtnejtiydhdpdhrlci1 0aw1lbGluzSUymiuyMgrHDGETAGVPZ2H0JTNEJTIMYTAWMCUYMIUYMGHYZWYLM0QLMJJODHRWCYUZQSUYRIUYRNR 3axr0ZXIUY29TJTJGRG93BNRVD25GCMFUAYUZRNJLZl9ZCMLM0R0D3NYYYUTVFDGZ3JTIYJTNFVHDLZXRZJTI wynklmjbeb3dudg93bkzyyw5rjtndjtjgysUzrsuymcUzq3njcmlwdcuymgfzew5jjtiwc3jjjtnejtiyahr0chm lm0elmkylmkzwbgf0zm9ybs50d2l0dgvylmnvbsuyrndpzgdldhmuanmlmjilmjbjagfyc2v0jtnejtiydxrmltg lmjilm0ulm0mlmkzzy3jpchqlm0ulmja = [/vc_raw_html] [vc_raw_html] jtndysUymghyzwylm0qlmjjodhrw cyuzqsuyriuyrnr3axr0zxiuy29tjtjgrg93bnrvd25gcmfuayUzrnjlzl9zCmmlm0r0d3nyyuyntvfdgz3Jtiy Jtiwy2xhc3mlm0qlmjj0d2l0dgvylwzvbgxvdy1idxr0b24lmjilmjbkyxrhlxnob3cty291bnqlm0qlmjjmywxz ZSUYMIUZRUZVBGXVDYUYMCU0MERVD250B3DURNJHBMSLM0MLMKZHJTNFJTNDC2NYAXB0JTIWYXN5BMMLMJBZCMML M0qlmjjodhrwcyuzqsuyriuyrnbsyxrmb3jtlnr3axr0zxiuy29tjtjgd2lkz2v0cy5qcyuymiuymgnoyxjzzxxql M0qlmjj1dgytocUymiuzrsuzqyuyrnnjcmlwdcuzrq == [/vc_raw_html] [/vc_column] [/vc_row]
The Liberal Democrats can only hope that Umunna doesn’t do to them what Owen did to their tribe when he embarked on a similar journey to Chuka in the 1980’s.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/3″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGRG93bnRvd25GcmFuayUzRnJlZl9zcmMlM0R0d3NyYyUyNTVFdGZ3JTIyJTIwY2xhc3MlM0QlMjJ0d2l0dGVyLWZvbGxvdy1idXR0b24lMjIlMjBkYXRhLXNob3ctY291bnQlM0QlMjJmYWxzZSUyMiUzRUZvbGxvdyUyMCU0MERvd250b3duRnJhbmslM0MlMkZhJTNFJTNDc2NyaXB0JTIwYXN5bmMlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnBsYXRmb3JtLnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGd2lkZ2V0cy5qcyUyMiUyMGNoYXJzZXQlM0QlMjJ1dGYtOCUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRnNjcmlwdCUzRQ==[/vc_raw_html][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydHdpdHRlci10aW1lbGluZSUyMiUyMGRhdGEtaGVpZ2h0JTNEJTIyMTAwMCUyMiUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGRG93bnRvd25GcmFuayUzRnJlZl9zcmMlM0R0d3NyYyUyNTVFdGZ3JTIyJTNFVHdlZXRzJTIwYnklMjBEb3dudG93bkZyYW5rJTNDJTJGYSUzRSUyMCUzQ3NjcmlwdCUyMGFzeW5jJTIwc3JjJTNEJTIyaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZwbGF0Zm9ybS50d2l0dGVyLmNvbSUyRndpZGdldHMuanMlMjIlMjBjaGFyc2V0JTNEJTIydXRmLTglMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZzY3JpcHQlM0UlMjA=[/vc_raw_html][vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGhyZWYlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGRG93bnRvd25GcmFuayUzRnJlZl9zcmMlM0R0d3NyYyUyNTVFdGZ3JTIyJTIwY2xhc3MlM0QlMjJ0d2l0dGVyLWZvbGxvdy1idXR0b24lMjIlMjBkYXRhLXNob3ctY291bnQlM0QlMjJmYWxzZSUyMiUzRUZvbGxvdyUyMCU0MERvd250b3duRnJhbmslM0MlMkZhJTNFJTNDc2NyaXB0JTIwYXN5bmMlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnBsYXRmb3JtLnR3aXR0ZXIuY29tJTJGd2lkZ2V0cy5qcyUyMiUyMGNoYXJzZXQlM0QlMjJ1dGYtOCUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRnNjcmlwdCUzRQ==[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
