The first shock was the sacking of
the Foreign Secretary William Hague. Now I for one did not see this coming I had a soft spot for William Hague.
I thought he performed reasonably well on the world stage and did not really do anything wrong.
Apparently William Hague was sacked for having moderate views on the EU. He has been replaced with a supposedly Euro sceptic MP Philip Hammond.
Another shock of the week was the sacking of the Education Secretary Michael Gove. I for one I am relieved that he has gone.
Michael Gove spent the last four years desperately trying to increase Conservative ideology in education. He will most be remembered for his politicisation of OFSTED.
Gove spent his last few months as the Education Secretary picking fights with the Home Secetary Teresa May and once it became public knowledge his tenure as the Education Secretary was all but over.
David Cameron replaced Michael Gove with Nick Morgan and this his cynical attempt to improve his standing amongst women in the forthcoming general election.
David Cameron also gave some key ministerial jobs to other women. I don't believe the changes he has made will make any difference. As he is hoping that voters will have short memories and will forget the hardship of the previous four years.
I also think that David Cameron has made even more enemies in his own party than he had before.
He will definitely need to watch his back as William Hague and Michael Gove are both probably feeling quite bitter about being humiliated.
