Reshuffle?
With the general lack of confidence in the Coalition Government it would not be surprising for a Cabinet Reshuffle to take place.What are your top 10 candidates to be involved?
MyTop 10.
1 Hunt
2 Spelman
3 Pickles
4 Lansley
5 Fox
6 Gove
7 Osbourne
8 Warsi
9 May
10 Smith
The problem could be that it may leave the Lib/Dems in Government!!!!

'General lack of confidence' Reg - only perhaps from your point of view.
Polls seem to demonstrate more confidence in the Cameron/Osborne team than in the Milliminor/Balls team.
As for a reshuffle Cameron is known for not wanting too regular reshuffles as her believes that Ministers need time to develop their brief. That said I personally would like to see some re-shuffling, Lansley perhaps in particular as he lacks a 'political' touch and Clarke of course as he is far too left wing in his sucking up to the LibDems. Those I would really like re-shuffled out of the Cabinet are indeed the Libdems but that wont happen though there may be some changes.
Osborne is doing a good job, not tough enough on spending but he is proving himself to be on top of his brief. Eric Pickles, my old sparring partner, is also doing a good job. I have some reservations about some of what Gove is up to but overall he is on the right track. Liam Fox is sticking up well for the Armed Forces much as I disapprove of defence cuts. The others you list I am not bothered with.

cannot be much of a reshufle, there was a large intake of new ones last may replacing the old guard that might have stood for cabinet posts.
i think spelman and may are both out of their depth, warsi has to stay as a token asian woman irrespective of the daft things she comes out with.
lansley and clarke are both safe, they take the flak away from the p.m.
i find gove confusing, i really do not know what end product he is looking for.
not sure why barry thinks that his old mate is doing a good job, he seems to be alienating councils of every political colour.

Could not help but notice Barry's dreaming back to Thatcher by referring to Cameron as "HER". : )
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

of course our maggie was barryw's hero, not right wing enough for him,
but never the less ultra right wing.

Maggie ultra right - you need to get a bit more perspective there Keith. I am a touch more to the right than her Keith but even I am not ultra-right. Those can be scary b*****s. I could tell you a tale or two there!
By the way, I am not talkng about BNP either, they are just plain evil sad g*ts and arguably are more extreme left wing than right.
Chris thank for pointing out my typo..........
