Indeed.

I think this says something:

The Tories announced the creation of the office in their election platform last spring, but have yet to roll out details of the new entity, to be housed within Foreign Affairs.

Foreign Affairs?

Again I think this is just another golden cushion to give a Con bureaucrat who 'dun good'. Something where you show up, answer a few emails, play mine sweeper for 2 hours take a nap, have lunch, write a memo about muslims/christian/buddists/scientology then punch out well before rush hour starts.

Been doing that for the last 4 years and the Class B train is now going the way of the dodo. Time to take the uniform off for good anyways and look into something different. More pay and no one trying to blow me up or shoot me sounds pretty attractive at my age!
