The Last Days of Mrs May?

If a General Election was called now I would find it hard to know who to vote for as all the main parties seem to be in a chaotic mess. Best for now to stick with what we've got, in my opinion.

No one knows where he stands on Brexit GrannyGravy, all we hear from John McDonald is ‘we are keeping all options open. Whilst all this mess is going on the Labour Party are rowing over changing of rules to elect the next leader,

I have learnt a lot about JC on gn.

I wouldn't believe everything you read about JC on Gnet, GrannyG. It's not always objective, or even true..

I have learnt a lot about JC on gn. I personally feel that as the opposition leader, he should be opposing!! Hardly ever see him on tv, I do believe he is on Marr this Sunday morning. I have no idea what his stance is on Brexit.

To have a strong government it is beneficial to have a strong opposition.

Labour do indeed want a general election which they may well win, that is why the Tories despite their differences will back TM in any vote of no confidence, there is no point in electing a new leader when it is the EU that is controlling the Brexit game.
Many Tories will not back the party line and the same will apply to Labour I don't see them abstaining en bloc, more likely to push for second referendum.

They want rid of this Tory government which is exactly what an opposition is supposed to want.

Labour will abstain no matter what the deal is. They want a general election.

Totally agree travelasfar

Those of you that don't like TM will be proved wrong at present there is nowhere near a majority if Tories willing to out her. She will stay as PM, you all saw Gove state yesterday that what ever the deal " future governments will want to renegotiate any deal".

THE EU IS NEVER GOING TO ALLOW THAT.

It will be a permanent deal whatever it is, personally I don't believe parliament will approve a deal with strings like Norway has. So either we break all ties and leave or parliament calls a second referendum, if they result is stay we stay, if it is leave we are out.

It will be Parliament that makes the decision because TM will have no majority, maybe MPs will vote in the national interest, but I'm not betting on that.

I agree travelsafar

Prefer TM any day against the Backstabbers she is surrounded by, not the sort of people I want to put my trust in !

Well said travelsofar ???

I couldn't agree more travelsafar. She's doing a great job in near impossible circumstances.

I think TM is intelligent enough to know that she will be outed after next March at some point. David Cameron got out so the same couldnt be done to him. She knows she is doing a job that no one else wants to do or could do better but they won't own up to it, instead they try to ridicule her. Once we leave she will be blamed for anything that doesn't suit us whether it is her fault or not. I think she is very brave to stand up to them all. Also if they get her out of office she will have earned a lovely lump of money to see her through her old age and she will go down in history as the woman who got us out of the EU. I say Well doneTM you are cuter than you look.

Overthehills
I must read that one!

'Infamy, infamy! They've all got it in for me!'

Just reading Robert Harris’s “Dictator” Jalima ...

The leader of the Tory party is being stsbbed in the back by some of her fellow MP’s and the leader of the Labour Party is stabbing some of his fellow MP’s in the back

of.

Off to Pedants' Corner I go.

I hope that was metaphorical and not literal GG13

Is anyone reminded off Ancient Rome?

There seems to be a lot of "willy waving" with nobody having the "canuhas" to do anything about anything (excuse my analogy)

TM will be here till after Brexit, "they" will leave her in power to be the "fallguy". Maybe, who knows it might well turn out to be fine? In which case JC and his loony lefts with all their infighting would have missed the boat!!!

I don't think anyone will challenge for the PM's job this side of Christmas, nor do I think there will be a GE any time soon.
Both Conservatives and Labour are infighting without much conviction, lots of talk but little action.

Sorry. wields.

I think you are absolutely right Telly. The backstabbers will not step forward, they will meddle and undermine but they will not wish to be the one in charge when everything goes badly wrong, and it will. he who weilds the knife never wears the crown. Nobody wants to be in charge next March when the fools finally realise they have been lied to hoodwinked. And yes, Annie this bloody mess is handing the future government to the Labour party on a plate, and still they carry on with their infighting, skullduggery and general nastiness to anyone who doesn't strictly follow the party line. I truly despair. We need a national government in this time of looming national emergency.

Does Barnier want to continue negotiating with the Tory team? I thoughthe called the Chequers proposal "illegal, insane and fraudulent" Has he changed his mind.
I'm wondering how many of the 50 have put things in writing to the 1922 committee, if there's enough they must be trawling for a new leader!
