Trouble at the Home Office

I almost forgot to blog about this, I have to confess that stories about the lack of leadership and incompetence at the Home Office are now so commonplace that they almost stop being newsworthy.

There are three elements of government which really cannot be done by any other body, Taxation, defence and home affairs. This government has show itself to be completely clueless in at least two of these areas and pretty poor in the other, they are good at putting up taxes and that is about it.

I don't imagine any heads will roll, I can't imagine how bad things would have to get before any ministers at the MOD or Home Office felt a need to take some responsibility and do the honourable thing.
