Piers Morgan suggests change of career and it could be terrible news for us all

James Dawson

And we thought Theresa May was bad.

Piers Morgan has made an announcement nobody wanted to hear, saying Theresa May’s ‘shambolic’ cabinet reshuffle has made him consider a move into politics.

The ham faced presenter declared he would do a better job of running the country and joked that he hoped  Good Morning Britain viewers would lend him their vote.

He the described the decision by two key members of the cabinet – Priti Patel and Justine Greening – not to take new jobs offered by the Prime Minister as ‘shambolic’, and added that maybe he should have a go instead.

He said: “After yesterday’s shambolic reshuffle… Would you feel happier with Theresa May [in charge]?

“Or would you like to see me have a go?

“Do you want hard leadership or soft leadership?

“Man up or not man up? Someone who would come into work on their deathbed.

“Someone who would not hesitate to sack all their colleagues if it made me and the country look better.”

Worryingly, a Twitter poll by Good Morning Britain appears to indicate a public appetite for the 52-year-old former newspaper editor to take the reigns of the country.

Let’s just hope it’s not indicative of any wider attitudes.
