Kishida likely to reshuffle cabinet between Sept 11-13

11 Comments

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is likely to reshuffle his cabinet between Sept. 11 to 13, the Yomiuri Shimbun daily reported on Thursday.

The reshuffle, which will likely be timed to fall between a tight schedule of diplomatic events, has been widely expected as Kishida seeks to bolster sagging support rates and could also provide clues as to the timing of a possible snap election.

Nothing at all but it always seems to work. Popularity will increase. It's a triumph of hope over repeated disappointments. Or maybe nobody remembers the last time the trick was pulled. Is there subliminal messaging in the inane TV or something?

So every time the rates drop heads roll, I get it now.

The problem is the person doing the “shuffling.”

Get rid of him and the entire crew, fresh meat all around.

Then maybe people will start to care.

A PM overseas does less damage than one at home.
