Kishida weighs replacing some ministers as support stays flat

Kishida should be replaced-as ineffectual as they come!

Fumio Kishida is considering a full scale cabinet member reshuffle in a bid to reverse the decline of his popularity from 57% to 31% after he announced a 45 trillion yen, 5 year defence plan... the highest since since WW2. I wonder how can a cabinet reshuffle reverse the plunging descent of Japan's Prime Minister's popularity rate?

Well there are a plethora of proven corrupt underlings to choose from. It’s just how much tax payer money for no result are we expected to absorb.

Kishida considered conducting a full-scale reshuffle but is now also considering replacing only a few ministers, the report said, because a large-scale replacement could possibly reveal more ties between the ruling Liberal Democratic Party and the Unification Church, a group critics say is a cult.

What an exciting new crop of dark suits and hereditary political connections wait in store.

Love the rationale at the end:

We cannot afford to remove our old ministers with their corrupt connections because the new ministers are also corrupt and we cannot afford newer revelations.

The UK is saddled with Sunak, Japan is stuck with clueless Kishida, both pathetically weak peas in a pod. Reshuffling the pack, like musical chairs, won't bring solutions to the endemic problems that now require radical surgery (at the top).

Well Sunak is a moron, raising tax rates while the UK heads into recession. What is the point of that? Make the UK economy even worse?

They could replace him with a little league baseball team. What would be the difference? Same results.

Well they closed work shops for the mentally disabled due to budget restrictions, now would seem a good time to employ these people in positions of government can’t get any worse.

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is considering replacing select members of his cabinet...... including himself!

Just replace everyone over 60. The cabinet needs young people instead of drowsy showa ojajis
