Dysfunctional
Late last year, when The Man of Steel’s sleuths ran background checks on senior khakis with a view to the all-important appointment, they completely missed the fact that Mush and General Bobby’s martyred brother were best buddies. Apparently, the latter told someone that Mush had been like “a father figure” to him, following his brother’s death. The same source has now leaked that at the height of the Mush stand off, Bob refused to partake of “even a morsel” at The Man of Steel’s table. In another leak, it’s being said that the min in charge of energy walked out of a cabinet meeting when hauled over the coals, saying, “ask those who run my ministry”. As to those “who run the ministry”, they’ve been asked to step up and take on the task but they’ve demurred, saying “thanks but no thanks”. Mr Bean’s off again, on again affiliation with The Brothers Sharifov is another leaking sieve of stories about dysfunctional personalities and relationships. He’s never been on an even keel with The Man of Steel, apparently, and Talented Bro has pandered to him to keep him on side. All the leaks point to growing dysfunction in the ruling clique.
The contagion spreads
The dysfunction doesn’t stop here; its contagion has spread to The Great Khan’s band where some stalwarts are slugging it out with each other. These conflicts were on display atop the container when an emotional party member from the UK had a go at IK’s Seraiki Sugar Daddy and elbowed him out of close proximity to The Great Khan. He then gave IK an earful about Sugar Daddy’s machinations and instigated a spate of emails from PTI trolls complaining about the latter. The giveaway was that the UK member had been copied in on all the complaints!
