Everyone has opinions from the sofa.

Now it’s your turn to survive Downing Street.

Can you last longer than the real Prime Ministers?

@TradDrav Starting to look like one of the more reliable picks 👀

[Downing Draft @DowningDraft]

Every cabinet has a weak link. Is Sajid Javid back as Health Secretary the risk—or its safest pair of hands?

Who would you move first?

A respectable full term.

[Fred Gough @fjd_gough]

Having enjoyed @38_0app and @46and0, I thought I'd give @DowningDraft a go too!

I survived 5.8 years as Prime Minister and became known as The Firefighter.

Impressive result. Rob is currently 21st all-time with 6.7 years in Downing Street.

Now the challenge: can you beat Thatcher’s 11.5 years?

Rishi Sunak back as Chancellor. Yvette Cooper at Work & Pensions Secretary.

How long does this cabinet survive: five years or five months?

📊 Before Andy Burnham, Britain had eight Prime Ministers serving across the previous 20 years:

Tony Blair
Gordon Brown
David Cameron
Theresa May
Boris Johnson
Liz Truss
Rishi Sunak
Keir Starmer

How would you rank them from best to worst?

[Downing Draft @DowningDraft]

@piersmorgan Gary Lineker can already voluntarily pay more tax if he wants to.

The slightly less popular part of his proposal is volunteering every other multimillionaire to pay more too.

Would a 2% wealth tax above £10 million be fair, or would it simply drive wealth elsewhere?

[Downing Draft @DowningDraft]

@andyburnham A 20% business rates cut for pubs, clubs and music venues will be welcomed by many.

But why stop there? Restaurants, hotels, shops and pharmacies are facing many of the same pressures.

Which businesses should qualify for support?

[Downing Draft @DowningDraft]

Fantasy politics, but you’re the Prime Minister.

Draft a UK Cabinet from real politicians, past and present. Set your priorities. Handle crises. Fight elections.

Seeing all the former Prime Ministers together raises an interesting question...

If you could build a Cabinet using only former Prime Ministers, who gets which job?

[Charlie Watts @char1iewatts]

Keir Starmer has officially joined the queue of ex-Prime Ministers

📊 We now have a Minister for AI, Kanishka Narayan. Should growth or regulation be his priority?

Keeping the UK competitive and ensuring we don't fall behind, or protecting jobs, copyright and the environment as AI develops?

What should come first?
