He isn't and may soon be tweeting about how his hands are tied by corrupt, lazy politicians and civil servants.
If you listen to some of the interviews with them you may get an idea. We won't probably won't agree with their perception at this stage but maybe in a year or so we may have a better idea
Well I've read about someone called Lily Allen (me neither) and apparently she is on record as saying (or rather TwitFacing, because nobody in their right mind would give her a stage from which to speak) that nobody likes Britain "cause (sic) slavery".
