Not content with taking us into an undemocratic referendum when we are all asked to vote on something where no-one could have a clear picture of the options, the conservatives now have a leader who stands and loudly slags off those with whom we need to negotiate for the secure future of the country. All thoroughly irresponsible - it just makes me want to despair.
May has done what she was elected to do. The democracy that she live in has chosen to get out of the EU and May will do that as leader of such a "democracy" That's what it means to be part of one.
Why are you choosing to be such a naysayer yet again jen.
In my view I have no idea what you are on about OP. Theresa May has done nothing but show how strong she is in leadership. I voted to get out of the EU and she's delivering.
"In theory Keir Starmer might be OK but he's only been an MP for 2 years."
Keir Starmer made his speech which laid out Labours position on how they would negotiate Brexit, what Labour want to happen. He was made a laughing stock like Dianne Abbot , they both talked rubbish.
Trisher, I have heard that if she gets a big enough majority, she will get rid of Boris. Even she knows what a liability he is now. She also knows by now that she needs to get rid of Davis. Can't remember the last time I heard Liam Fox say anything.
However, I do agree with daphne. If you want to stop her becoming more of a dictator than she already is, you should vote tactically.
May was a terrible Home Secretary and has presided over a number of government gaffes since she became PM. The chances of her negotiating successfully with the EU are very slight. The EU has set out perfectly reasonable concerns including the protection of citizens and borders. If she gets in TM will mess up the whole thing with the assistance of her FS Boris. If it wasn't so vitally important it would be a great joke.
But - Merkel is just the leader of one country in the EU out of 28 27 member states. She is not the leader of the EU although sometimes it would appear to be the case.
