Again it fits given the long time he tends to stay in roles.
This is about my personal opinion of the man but just what seems to be said of him.

I guess the respect you cite was due to the fact he actually turned up for work and tried to do the job in hand. However, I'd discount one Tory saying how good another Tory is as slightly biased.
Look to the real world and see the mess he made of the Education sector when he was in charge. He was almost universally loathed by the teaching profession due to his toxic changes. Look to the real world and see him promising, on camera, that leaving the EU would improve food & environmental standards yet we now have them lower than ever before.
Bottom line is that the man is a serial liar and cannot be trusted.
