Am I the outlier here for wanting highly skilled people, with experience of running large complex businesses/entities to be at the higher end of government? Parachuting in and no connection to local area probably means, yes might be a shite local mp. But when it comes to ministers I don’t really want people making it up as a they go along, with no clue what they’re doing or how to do it (although aware that ministers aren’t running things day to day).
No idea regarding the competency of Andrew Griffith, but if a CXO of some major business/company wants to take a massive pay cut and attempt to make things better for the country (rather than use it to further line their own pockets) is that that terrible?
