She can't possibly stay - she's fatally wounded. Boris, Hammond and DD must be plotting as I post. Rudd a no-no, too close to her.

So doesn't May care about the message of the election? Her none shuffle seems to suggest she doesn't give a toss.

Thanks, nandalot. I'll check back who the whoever is!

Rigby46 Sun 11-Jun-17 18:15:39

Of course she doesn't give a toss - if she gave a toss she wouldn't have called the election in the first place.

Gove at Downing Street!!!!!!angry

Whats left?

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 19:00:58

Leadsom

House Leader

So Gove got the environment?

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 19:04:15

Yes sad

Nandalot Sun 11-Jun-17 19:31:57

Gove for environment. Against teaching climate change in schools, opted for fracking in National Parks, Illinois of badgers, privatisation of national forests though calls himself a "shy green". Perfect candidate for the job.

I just heard the news about Gove ... is this a prescient warning of the end of the world?shocksad

Ginny42 Sun 11-Jun-17 19:39:12

It shows how desperate she is.

Ginny42 Sun 11-Jun-17 19:40:03

DUP don't work on Sundays.

Luckygirl Sun 11-Jun-17 19:58:56

Wonderful quote from Mumsnet: "Gove really is an unflushable turd - just when you dare to think he's gone for good there he is again rising from the u bend like last night's bad kebab"

Brilliant!

Riverwalk Sun 11-Jun-17 20:00:11

Just listening to a Cambridge academic on BBC News - did she really say the DUP are pushing for a role for Nigel Farrage?

What's the connection? Think I've had too much sun today - maybe I imagined it hmm

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 20:00:54

Leadsome is pretty ineffectual, you wonder how on earth she is going to manage the house

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 20:02:12

Riverwalk yes!!! Its like a nightmare, but him and Banks want payback after the £435k fund

Riverwalk Sun 11-Jun-17 20:04:45

But what's that got to do with the DUP - did Banks also give them money?

I'm losing the will .... grin

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 20:08:21

Well lets put it this way- the dup recieved £435 k from an unknown source which they used to support brexit on mainland uk

Banks is the only one with those sort of resources. Farage and Banks friends. Farage the face of Brexit

Ginny42 Sun 11-Jun-17 20:51:41

Well TM has sold her soul to the devil so she might as well have a couple of liars in there in Boris and Gove and those in the DUP implicated in dodgy deals with Banks and Farage.

What a bad example to young people.

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 21:00:51

Thats why they rejected her ginny

Comes to something when the young have a better moral code than their elders!

'After failing to gain a majority in part because public saw her as robotic, Theresa May gives the same answer to three different questions.'
On twitter.

durhamjen Sun 11-Jun-17 21:43:41

I notice that Brokenshire has been given Northern Ireland again. I bet he was begging for health but Hunt refused to give it up.

durhamjen Sun 11-Jun-17 21:47:08

By the way, that's old. I think it's now 4 million on hospital waiting lists.

Haven't seen her announce the new housing minister yet. I presume she is having one, as she gave housing such prominence in the election campaign.

durhamjen Sun 11-Jun-17 21:53:21

A bit of wishful thinking?

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 22:08:11

Maybot has been rebooted

Stability blah blah hard work blah blah brexit blah blah

Still the same message as the messages given out during the campaign.

Quick on the uptake isnt she?

durhamjen Sun 11-Jun-17 22:10:10

I preume robots can have memories wiped. She appears to have forgotten the last week.

whitewave Sun 11-Jun-17 22:16:00

Wonder how on earth shes going to change her character?

We are lumbering along with the weakest pm we've ever had
