Failing Chris Grayling: The Minister For Dishonesty And Ineptitude
Let us be clear about this. Grayling is an absolute disaster. Known to be, shall we say, less than honest, and every governmental department he touches turns to rubble. In my humble opinion Chris Grayling is the most USELESS government minister in British political history. Somehow, Theresa May appointed him as Secretary of State for Transport back in July. What has Grayling got on these people? In fact, don't answer that. I don't think I want to know. Lets take a brief look at some of Grayling's 'Best Bits': Grayling famously claimed that billions of pounds are lost to benefit fraud which was based on figures showing that £2.5 billion was lost due to fraud and error in the system. It then turned out that the amount lost to fraud alone was less than £1bn . Grayling has never apologised for distorting figures. This led to the likes of Richard Desmond's (yuk) Express tabloid claiming 75% off benefit claimants on the sick are scrounging thieves.
