May in trouble

You want her replaced by Boris Johnson or Jacob Rees Mogg?

It isn't just TM though is it? The Conservative party policies are dire, they're split on Brexit - you're right though, the Tories can't come up with an alternative who would definitely win against TM in a leadership contest or would then go on to win an election.

Can I add cuts to children's services/family centres to your list of horrors OP?

I think I answered that question in my last sentence Annie

What a shambles!

Please feel free to add to the list of horrors Iam64 and anyone else.

I was about to make some Comment suggesting we’re all doomed when I remembered the other recent thread when those of us expressing concern about the state of things in the country, were accused of exaggerating

Yes, some people are blinkered Iam

May, may be in trouble, but who or what is the alternative?
I cannot remember in my voting years a time when the choice was so uninspiring for want of a better word.
There doesn’t seem to be an abundance of candidates, or perhaps I’m not looking in the right places for information.Surely there has to be some bright sparks waiting in the political wings .

I agree Bridgeit, the three parties are in a mess.

A Corbyn/Momentum government any one?!! Boris? Jacob? Vince (Is he still there?!) Think I'll stick with Theresa for the time being anyway!!

niggly, poor Vince Cable, he has no voice

"The pussies cried 'miow miew'! Poor pussies, what else can they do?!!!" ?

When we come to the next election suppose tossing a coin before going into the voting booth would help.

That’s about it Annibach ?

Not sure why I added a laughing emoji! Should have been a tearful one?or this?

Bridgeit. I am past being tearful . As I said on an earlier thread come the election it’s a case of do I want to be hanged or shot. ?

As suggested previously it's time for a coalition national government working for the benefit of the country rather than a bunch of self serving/idealogically driven MPs. The brightest and best of the parties not just the same old same old.

We don’t hear from the brightest and best Jane. Even the cabinet and shadow cabinet are silent

But people don't like coalitions, Jane10. That was one of the reasons that the UK rejected the proposals for PR (though it was a dreadful sort of PR that was proposed) in a referendum.

This strikes me as a national emergency. If there is another brexit vote it might succeed, if not, there would have to be another election then God knows who'd get in. Most likely a hung parliament leading to guess what? a coalition. Meanwhile we'd have been put out by the EU as the final date would have passed. Lose lose all round.

The Tories have one sane voice but Ruth Davidson is their Scottish leader and, besides, expecting a baby next month. Oh dear! What a great antidote she would be to JRM! Can you imagine him accepting leadership by a lesbian?

And I would never vote Tory in a month of Sundays!

Exactly! These arguements seem to hinge on ‘but we’ve no one better’, which is exactly what I was saying in the OP.

What a shambles.

No one can deny ANY of the points I’ve highlighted are indeed facts and yet we have this pathetic approach to not doing anything about it.

How very English!

How Very English?

Yes indeed! Us Celts have more fire in our belly.

Please don’t go agreeing with me Annie - not on this thread at least ?
