More to the point, an army of intelligent (debateable) & qualified civil servants actually do all the work. The Politicians make decisions and take the praise and/or responsiblity.

Or, a Minister's job as Sir Humphrey puts it:
Sir Humphrey: Minister I have something to say to you which you may not like to hear.

Jim: Why should today be any different.

Sir Humphrey: Minister, the traditional allocation of executive responsibilities has always been so determined as to liberate the Ministerial incumbent from the administrative minutiae by devolving the managerial functions to those whose experience and qualifications have better formed them for the performance of such humble offices, thereby releasing their political overlords for the more onerous duties and profound deliberations which are the inevitable concomitant of their exalted position.

Jim: Now, whatever made you think I wouldn't want to hear that.

Sir Humphrey: Well I though it might upset you.

Jim: How could it, I didn't understand a single word. Humphrey for God's sake, for once in your life put it into plain English.

Sir Humphrey: If you insist. You are not here to run this Department.

if we implemented some of his ideas, then the country would be better! However transport minister? Your joking right? Did you not see him try to do the radio version of transport! While he might bring in rules such as 'drive as fast as you see safe' which would work for mature drivers, scumbags like me who are in the process of learning would not be able to control ourselves :p

Don't worry, learner drivers will be forced to drive minicabs around London, to pick up how things are done quickly :)
 
I can't see a petition on that site leading to the great man attaining POWER, nonetheless I signed it for the sheer novelty value.
