  1. "Asked if Iran had been discussed in Cabinet, the PMOS said that Jack Straw had made a presentation to colleagues on the present situation."

    Hmm. The blind leading the incompetent. To war. How encouraging.

  2. The old Death by PowerPoint routine. It’s necessary to do this as the vast majority of the Cabinet are only semi-literate and have the attention span of a fruit fly. I hope Jack was given a bouquet after the all singing all dancing show.

    But as always, a 20 minute presentation can only just cover the superficialities. And it’s probably on the basis of this cursory look that all policy decisions are made – including invasions, ASBOs, Police Powers, Education, Health, etc.

    You can bet they spend a great deal more time and effort scrutinising the latest proposals for their remunerations.
