Government Reshuffle

I really do not know what to say about this.  Many commentators have said that the reshuffle represents a lurch to the right, which I am sure it does.  So what could this all mean? 
Well the person that has become Transport Secretary (his or her name escapes for the present) does not live in the flightpath of Heathrow Airport, so we all know what is going to happen there.  Property prices to plummet in certain areas of London?  More congestion on the M25?
Jezza has been moved to Health!  Well you know that that is going to end in tears.  He should have been sacked after the Murdoch scandal, but was found not guilty by Cameron on the basis of a 25 minute interview.  You can expect him to cosy up to large private Health Providers and witness the dismantling of the N.H.S. as we all know it!
Gideon has not been shifted, if anyone should have, he should have.  He has successfully steered the economy into the first double-dip recession that this country has not seen since the 1930's, in the days of the Great Depression, which had the effect of the rise of Fascism in most of Western Europe.  We can all look forward to that happening again.  The cuts are likely to continue which will probably mean that the economy will not improve any time soon.  Taking away people's jobs does not help the economy to grow, as we have already witnessed.  What is required is a spell of public spending on infra-structure projects in order to kick-start the economy into growth again.  I bet if the Government goes down this path that a lot of Private Companies will cream a goody proportion 'off the top', and there will be an influx of cheap labour from the Eastern Europe.
