Does Chancellor Sajid Javid have what it takes for the second toughest job in British politics?

He's in for a rocky ride – but one filled with opportunity too A looming global downturn. Capital fleeing the country as we depart the European Union. Sterling in freefall, trade seizing up, house prices collapsing and unemployment about to rise. The briefing notes the Treasury officials have prepared for Sajid Javid as he moves into Number 11 Downing Street are no doubt as gloomy as any they have ever put in front of a new Chancellor.

mattlynnwriter He’s worked in banking, so it will. be interesting to see if he can beef up the financial sector and read riot act to gloom and doom naysayer forecasters.

mattlynnwriter Does it mean it's going to be easier participatingin offshore tax avoidance? 😏

mattlynnwriter He sure does 👏👏👏👏

jatol101 mattlynnwriter Didn’t manage to do anything about the Iranians paddling over from France....

mattlynnwriter That's an easy one: NO. SJ is a shallow, irresponsible, grandstanding addict of gesture politics. With BoJo not pretending to be looking more than a few weeks ahead, expect some badly-judged acts that we'll be recovering from for decades.

mattlynnwriter I believe that this man is made for the job unlike Hunt ( the entrepreneur) this man has business acumen BorisDay

mattlynnwriter Nope. All the same just reshuffling deck chairs. All self serving

mattlynnwriter No, by the look of *that* power stance image, one of his bollocks has exploded and the other was damaged in the fallout and he's going to need both.

mattlynnwriter Removing IPT and P11D from GPMI plans and providing incentives for GIP would remove pressure from the bottomless pit that is the NHS. Removing beer duty from licensed premises would slow the decline in pubs, the only real community space other than church.

mattlynnwriter If he removes the minimum floor income restriction on small businesses, he will gain respect very quickly.

mattlynnwriter Like a glass coffin, remains to be seen. The movement of state actors moneies, involved in financing jihad through any of the 68/71 FCO mohammedan proscribed groups through the square mile must be an urgent priority.

mattlynnwriter Yes

mattlynnwriter No...🙄😲 in a nutshell beano telegraph:no

mattlynnwriter Unlikely But you never know
