The Home Office needs artful, subtle leadership. Instead, it’s been saddled with an insensitive rightwing loyalist, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

When a boss and her number two issue statements professing love for each other, something is wrong. Witness the home secretary, Priti Patel, and her chief civil servant, Philip Rutnam, countering rumours from within their department. These allegations about Patel, leaked to the press, include “bullying”, “belittling officials”, creating an atmosphere of fear, and being out of her depth. This is not a happy ship.

The guardian (lol) posting nonsense as usual

She's got more balls than all of towers combined

Even though I have no sympathy for her I agree with Theresa Villiers that there is an element of misogyny underscoring the criticism !!!

She's definitely out of her depth but where is the prime minister since he got elected? Is he wrapped up warm in his home because of fear of Corona virus?

Patel seems to be in the shallow end of the pool with her feet firmly on the ground unlike the people in the deep end flailing about trying to say she is drowning.

She’s not “out of her depth”. That makes it sound as if she doesn’t knows what she’s doing. She does. She’s going rogue, just as she did under Theresa May. The only difference is TM sacked her for it. Johnson hired her because of it.

The problem we have is that Priti has agreed to be Boris' Home Secretary & the press have torn her to pieces. And let's call it what it is - it's racism.

They are both out of their depth, and this is why Cummings is taking over.........a worry for Britain!!!

For their information, the cwviche is Peruvian and the pisco sour also, the Chileans have no culture, they have an ugly drink called brandy, inform yourself better before talking about inconsistencies.

On the contrary it needs a bit of a kick to get it working properly. It's because she's a woman really. commentisfree.

Simon Jenkins, is a rabid europhile & a screaming lefty.. ffs Simon, get back under that rock..

Establishment turns on strong woman of Ugandan-Indian heritage because she doesn't fit the lib-left template. If this were a Labour minister, the Mr. Jenkins and the Guardianista hordes would be screaming about misogyny and racism.

She’d be out of her depth in a puddle. Whilst wearing stilts. And standing on a ladder.

Haha! The bitterness of losers like Jenkins will never end. Quite a sight.

doesn`t stop her continually brown tongue though
