Bunch of jokers running the government...

"What an absolutely ludicrous, incompetent, absurd, make it up as you go along, couldn’t run a *** up in a brewery bunch of jokers there are running the government at the most critical time in a generation for the country." (Ed Miliband on Twitter.)

Is "What an absolutely ludicrous, incompetent, absurd, make it up as you go along, couldn’t run a *** up in a brewery bunch of jokers running the government at the most critical time in a generation for the country" a noun phrase and a complement in that copular sentence above?

Do the clauses (ellipted ones, I presume) "make it up as you go along" and "couldn’t run a *** up in a brewery" attributively modify the noun phrase "bunch of jokers"?
