New secretary of state

MUCH speculation (again will be out-of-date) that NI Secretary of State Shaun Woodward is to be promoted through the cabinet ranks.

Which of course means we get a new SoS. Who will grasp at the post? It is of course a post that comes with a seat at cabinet and nice digs in Hillsborough and plush offices in the Stormont estate.

And now that most of the powers are devolved and more to come there really isn’t that much work to do. Plenty of time try and save that Westminster seat.

Who wouldn’t want it?
