Swire: enormously missed by the Maldives

Swire’s Twitter account:

https://mobile.twitter.com/HugoSwire

is full of grateful thanks from many countries for his ministrations at the Foreign Office.

By far the most coming from the Maldives, which appears desolate at its loss, not salved by already having a new UK government representative in place, probably Sir Alan Duncan, MP who took Swire’s place.

Still, that country has about 350,000 inhabitants whereas East Devon has only about 136,000 so taking care of East Devon should be much easier and much less commuting time from Mid-Devon.

Was the new wine and candles photo at the top of the Twitter account taken during one of his visits to the Maldives, perhaps? It looks much too exotic to be Sidmouth – though climate change may well see Sidmouth transformed into a tropical climate quite soon!

One thought on “Swire: enormously missed by the Maldives

  1. Whilst it is nice to know that so many people from other countries are grateful for all the help he gave them when he was a minister, his first responsibility is – and has always been since he first became an MP – to his constituents.

    But in the two years since I have been monitoring what he says in parliament he seems to have done little, if anything, for his constituents. And I don’t see many (or even any) messages on his Twitter feed which are thanking him fr all his efforts to help someone or some issue in East Devon. This absence of thanks from East Devon “says more about him than cash ever can”.
