Within hours of the Buckingham Palace ceremony on 13th July, our Prime Minister, Mrs Theresa May, swung into action and announced the key ministerial positions. She has not wasted a single moment to show that she meant it when she said “Brexit means Brexit”. Nobody is left in doubt about her firm commitment to Brexit by the creation of two new ministries. The Brexit Ministry for conscious uncoupling from the EU and the International Trade Ministry for development of unfettered closer trade relations with the wider world including the EU nations.
The Prime Minister has taken a leaf out of Chanakya’s Rajniti Shastra by choosing individuals whose body and soul are wedded to the cause of their assigned jobs and by visiting Mrs Sturgeon in Edinburgh on 15th July to preserve the unity of our United Kingdom. Mrs May has shown her calm and calculated temperament and deep wisdom by the formation of her first Cabinet full of Gems. What a magnificent start of her tenure as our PM!
